So… Is there an alternative to docker?
Podman
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.
Many have moved to or added the GitHub registry. It's still a corporate controlled registry, but Microsoft are far more likely (and able) to eat the cost for developer goodwill.
I've got a registry running on my homelab that I haven't quite moved fully over to yet.
Agree. They'll surely to pay the cost and they have a proven track record on handling any potential lock in.
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.
