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/...
- Docker Inc. refuses to patch HIGH vulnerabilities in Docker

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`)
- Moby: Block io_uring_* syscalls in default profile
- Io_uring will be blocked by default on Docker

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.

Podman, the open source Docker alternative ported to M1 (Apple Silicon) machines
Mostly because the dev linked to the Homebrew installer when announcing(?) it on her Twitter account[0], but also because the forked repo[1] that contains the patches just shows the original README.
This isn’t an official port to the M1 — it’s a custom version patched by a different dev.
