Stop use docker

It's too late, we can't contain it

Yeah, that ship has sailed.
- Worse things happen at sea.
- Lol

Missing a comma: “Stop, use Docker.” But actually, use Podman.

If WASM+WASI existed in 2008, we wouldn't have needed to created Docker. That's how important it is. Webassembly on the server is the future of computing. A standardized system interface was the missing link. Let's hope WASI is up to the task!

I think WASM/WASI still has a ways to go before that’s realistic, but I’d keep an eye on them for the future.

As someone who has used and loved Docker since 2015, but never used Podman, can you explain the difference and why I might want to make the switch?
- From a practical standpoint I’m really not qualified recommend one over the other, but the licensing is different. Podman also seems to be more “open source-y,” but I’m going on vibes here; perhaps someone more knowledgeable can elucidate.
- If you want to lose most of your tooling and community support, Podman is a great way to go.
- From what I heard, podman doesn’t require root but that’s about it. On the other side, it’s a redhat thing and it’s not as popular which means less documented and less containers
- Supposed to be an easy, if not a drop in replacement afaik, it's under a permissive licence (Apache 2.0), beyond that it's authored by RedHat I can't tell you much else, it's something I've been considering moving to personally (and work, pretty much for licencing and the few of us that want to use more open tech stacks) I just haven't had a chance to work with it.
  Supposedly able to pull docker images and work with docker-compose, just not swarm.
- If you’re thinking in terms of JavaScript, then you must not be aware that WASM/WASI is a vastly more ambitious project than you know.
I honestly and truly don't want to spend time relearning another system like this, especially one without decades of documentation and support available.
- Depending on how old you are, eventually that choice may no longer be up to you.
