Docker doesn’t require podman at all

Podman isn’t an addon for docker. Podman is the open source alternative containerizer to docker. When I first encountered Docker’s AI Bonzai buddy called Gordon, Lemmy responded with, “Lol, everyone knows to not run Docker.”

No, I am aguing that if you were capable of setting up Cisco BGPs in the mid-90s, when documentation was ass,

Documentation was far more thorough and accurate than today. First was everything was simpler. No VMs, No Containers. No https certificates unless they were e-commerce. The second reason is that documentation wasn’t an afterthought because the project is done by volunteers. I got a 100+ page binder from Netscape just to cover how to configure their build kit. (The software to make a customized installation CD.)

The last important factor was the rate of change was slower so the documentation you got in 1996 was still completely accurate in 1999.
