If you’re doing it right, containers are less like VMs and more like cgroups. If orchestrated correctly it uses less system resources to run lots of services on a single system/node.
That said, I’m a devops/infrastructure/network professional and not a developer, so maybe I’m missing something from the dev experience… But I love containers.
Docker does kinda suck now, though. Use podman or another interface instead if you can help it.
I’ve seen many a terrible containerized monolithic app.
I’ve seen plenty of self-hosters complain when an app needs multiple containers, to the point where people make unofficial containers containing everything. I used to get downvoted a LOT on Reddit when I commented saying that separating individual systems/daemons into separate containers is the best practice with Docker.

Why is docker bad now and what makes pdoman better?
Docker vs Podman CVE
I see but I do wonder if docker has so many more cves partly because it has way more users.
It seems that Podman is more lightweight. Less code = less errors. And there are some architectural differences. But i’m only googling stuff.
