Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Docker considering flatpak and snap apps for Linux (please upvote)

Apple unveils M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max, the most advanced chips for a PC
x86-64 containers?
https://github.com/docker/roadmap/issues/384 is still open. :(
-
Debugging Slim Containers: A quick tutorial using the "Docker Labs Debug Tools" extension
Request features or give feedback: https://github.com/docker/roadmap/issues/524
-
"The docker container stop command is deprecated" - is this true?
Nothing in the road map [Github] returned by searching 'stop'.
-
How do I get real client IP inside docker container for logging to the database
Further reading online revealed that host network mode is not available for swarm started with docker stack deploy. (Possible related open issue: github link).
-
Serious Question: why use Docker Desktop? (from a Linux user)
Single-click k8s install. Extensions. Init. And there are people who just prefer an app-based experience for their own reasons - I think it was the most "upvoted" request ever on their public roadmap.
-
Ask HN: Is MacBook Pro 14 M1 16/512 still a great choice?
In case you need to run x86 containers: Docker has Rosetta support now but it's buggy.
https://github.com/docker/roadmap/issues/384
Without Rosetta it uses relatively slow Qemu emulation.
-
Docker's deleting Open Source images and here's what you need to know
https://github.com/docker/roadmap/issues/44
So, at the moment, any public organization images are doomed to be lost, if they won't pay.
-
How's the M2 Max for Docker development?
I've been watching this GitHub issue for damn near 3 years. Filesystem performance is pretty bad, depending on what you're doing. I had to kludge together workarounds to my DX at my last role where we used Docker for development. It was really, really painful and distracting.

Damn Small Linux 2024
You might look into CoLima as a way to get started.
https://github.com/abiosoft/colima?tab=readme-ov-file
Its user interface is Docker-like, using containers.
For full desktop, I've only used the commercial app "Parallels", which can set up an Ubuntu desktop for you. Also Fedora and Alpine and Debian I believe.
But
> I don't really have any resources to share. I just know how to boot a vmlinuz with an initramfs using QEMU, and decided to download the Linux kernel source code and try compiling it.
I highly recommend working through Linux from Scratch and possibly the Gentoo Handbook. It's a journey.

Howto: WASM runtimes in Docker / Colima
I could not find any guide how to add WASM container capability to Docker running on Colima. This guide provides a few Colima templates for exactly this, which adds WasmEdge, Wasmtime and Wasmer runtime types.

Colima runs much faster on Macos: https://github.com/abiosoft/colima

Podman Desktop v1.5 with Compose onboarding and enhanced Kubernetes pod data
After docker desktop became unusable, I jumped to colima and never looked back. I still use the docker runtime in it (the non-proprietary part) but it also supports containerd. On Mac it's just a "brew install colima" and then "colima start"
I also install the compose and ecr credentials plug-ins (since I use ecr for my container registry.) It has the full functionality of docker desktop minus the UI, which I never used anyways.

K3s – Lightweight Kubernetes
On my M1 Pro system, I have nothing but positive things to say about the experience of using Colima (https://github.com/abiosoft/colima). Quick to set up and fast to use.

UTM – Virtual Machines for iOS and macOS
I'd say Lima and Colima should be enough for most use cases:

Lazydocker
The bash/zsh equivalent wouldn't be too hard, but I use fish.

[3] I’m on OrbStack now, but it isn’t so much better at how I use Docker than Colima is that I think that it’s an instant buy, especially with the planned subscription model. If I used anything other than the Docker integration, I might think it's better, but as of right now, no.
I also have some issues with its insistence on asking for elevated permissions. I will never grant permission[4] to make a symlink to the "standard" Docker socket; context and `$DOCKER_HOST` work well enough. It should not ask if the permission hasn't been given once. I also worry about other "advanced" features that may need an elevated permissions helper[5].
