It’s like IT. When they do their job competently you don’t notice much, but when they’re an incompetent narcissist they can insta-destroy everything.

The Docker runtime is probably ok as it is a tool instead of a community. The registry has a community aspect and is where we’ll likely see exploitation of vendor lock in. Luckily Docker was grounded well and you can set up your own registry.
Note this also builds oci compatible containers you can run with podman, kubernetes, etc.
It lets you develop on bare metal in an environment the same as the docker container and is reproducible rather than just repeatable.
