I have had to deal with dependency hells plenty, i am a Debian user after all.

But with that argument you’re now just running outdated shit in a container. Not a great pro-docker argument tbh.

I rather have the dependency hell.

What? Outdated packages running in containers because the maintainer didnt update their shit is not a real problem?

Seems that it is perhaps you who doesnt know how to use it.

Why not have the option for both?

I dont see how this is a defense for jamming everything in to a container.

Docker has its uses, but it has gone to far.

I already have a webserver with Apache, mariadb and everything. Why does your PHP based website only come as a docker solution? Fuck you.

When you go all in with docker, it quickly becomes a mess with rando NICs and containers named “random 32 character string” and dependencies up the wazoo. Ending up running ancient packages because the developer refuses to apt upgrade their shit.

Proxmox or any other hypervisor platform gives you control. Whereas you have to take it for docker and youre still at the mercy or the developers to keep your shit secure.

It’s been that case since forever now. Nothing has really changed and the same rules still apply.

I still remember ‘hacking’ my ISP ADSL router 2+ decades ago and listening to the WAN interface. Hundreds of thousands of attempts per day in the early 2000s. Mostly US, Russia and China.

My personal #1 threat on the internet for the past 20 years has been DDOS and thanks to billions of IOT devices and privacy invading ‘smart’ appliances everywhere… The botnets have never been this plenty. DDOS as a Service for mere cents a day.

LLM’s joined the fray in recent years but it still can’t do anything it hasn’t learned from us humans.
