InfluxDB

It's really not that arcane — the image definition just consists of commands that run in the context of the image. For example, here's one that adds X support to an Ubuntu image: https://github.com/andrewmackrodt/dockerfiles/blob/master/ubuntu-x11/Dockerfile
Kitematic runs on Linux: https://github.com/docker/kitematic/releases, and so does Dockstation: https://dockstation.io
You can also run docker-ui or portainer over a web interface https://github.com/kevana/ui-for-docker or https://docs.portainer.io/v/ce-2.9/start/install
*cough cough*
The Arch based one I'm showing this example for starts with this image, however I have my own Dockerfile which sets some stuff up like the kerfuffle user with the correct uid/gid and home directory. Also the actual Podman invocation is generated from a script and not all these values are hardcoded.
Yup, that's precisely what I meant. Yes, there are incredibly complex images with lots of tooling Like keycloak, but even then, the docker file is pretty straigthforward and simple to understand.
But usually, I mean images like uvicorn. I think the other user just found a couple of bad ones and now assumes all the experiences are like that.
