      How many docker containers would you deploy on a laptop? Also 128gb is tiny even for an SSD these days .

        None, in fact, because I still haven’t got in to using docker! But that is one of the factors that pushes it down the list of things to learn.

        I’ve had a number of low-storage laptops, mostly on account of low budget. Ever since taking an 8GB netbook for work (and personal) in the mountains, I’ve developed space-saving strategies and habits!

          I love docker… I use it at work and I use it at home.

          But I don’t see much reason to use it on a laptop? It’s more of a server thing. I have no docker/podman containers running on my PCs, but I have like 40 of em on my home NAS.

            Yeah, I wonder if these people are just being grumpy grognards about something they don’t at all understand? Personal computers are not the use case here.
