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 Is Four Things
Fifth thing: Bricker of Windows
https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/1549
Still pissed my HP Windows laptop was bricked from it a few months ago. I’ll never use it for anything.

Emacs 29.1 Released
I use containers on Mac and Windows for development (and we deploy on linux). Docker for Mac is _unusably_ slow in my experience. The VM that it runs is a giant resource hog and a battery hog, and doesn't support ipv6 [0] Docker Desktop itself is (another) resource hog, wildly buggy, and painfully slow. It's the epitome of "shitty electron app".
On windows, docker desktop has all of the same issues as it does on mac. Docker's concept of volumes and file permissions on windows are nonsense. Windows updates and Docker Desktop regularly decide to disagree, [1] It's networking support interferes with other applications (like OpenVPN and the Xbox Game Center) [2].

Docker sends usages even if you've opted out
> FWIW, when denying the request to wootric, the docker daemon crashes.
A yes, this about fits the standard of engineering I've come to expect from Docker.
Anyway, I couldn't find any references too "woocentric" anywhere in the code; looks like this part isn't open source? I did find this other issue: https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/12718 with a comment from May 2022:
"At some point we found out that bugsnag was actually sending a «session creation» request of some sort when initialized, even if no crash was actually being reported. We believed we had fixed that, but I just checked with a MITM proxy and it appears to have regressed… There may be some other services doing something similar without us realizing (wootric, …).
We have created a ticket in our internal backlog to review all this."

Why is it so hard to work with Windows images?
I ran into this error ( no matching manifest for linux/amd64 in the manifest list entries ), so I tried again on my Windows machine. But then I realized that Docker on Windows actually just runs on WSL2, and it's technically Linux as well! Supposedly, I can switch to Windows containers by clicking on "Switch to Linux container...", but I guess apparently not on Windows 10 Home?? https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/9701

Release Radar • March 2024 Edition
Having been featured in our February 2023, and January 2024 Release Radars, Moby is the original Linux Container runtime. This new version adds a bunch of changes to the Docker CLI and Moby itself with additional features. There's bug fixes and enhancements, with the main thing for users to be on the look out for containers that were created using Docker Engine 25.0.0. These containers might have duplicate MAC addresses, and thus must be recreated. The same goes for those containers created with Moby 25.0+ and with user defined MAC addresses. Read up on all these changes in the release notes.

Choosing a Name for Your Computer
Formlabs does this as well for their 3d printers, my earliest encounter of this was when Docker started getting popular: https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/pkg/namesgenerator/...

Do not install Docker Desktop on GNU/Linux systems
Try to use moby instead since that is the engine in Docker.

Exploring Podman: A More Secure Docker Alternative
> Podman is designed to help with this by providing stronger default security settings compared to Docker. Features like rootless containers, user namespaces, and seccomp profiles, while available in Docker, aren't enabled by default and often require extra setup.
Seccomp has been enabled by default since 2015: https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/18780
It is true that Rootless isn't enabled by default but its "extra setup" can be done with a single command (`dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install`)

OpenZFS 2.2: Block Cloning, Linux Containers, BLAKE3
Perhaps.
Thing is, https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/670bc0a46c4ca03b75f1e72f73... is using https://github.com/mistifyio/go-zfs which features code like `out, err := zfsOutput("get", "-H", key, d.Name)` (Source: https://github.com/mistifyio/go-zfs/blob/master/zfs.go#L315) to get a single zfs property.
Somebody chose to use a library as abstraction that looks good but is implemented as a MVP (nothing wrong with that). "In the future, we hope to work directly with libzfs" should have raised an alarm somewhere, though.
What are some alternatives?
