I use Linux because Docker doesn't run natively on Macs.

I don't give a shit about our relation because I have a life.

It's available in homebrew though

[-] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

what do you mean?

[-] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Do you not use homebrew on macos?

[-] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yes I do but how does the install method change the fact that Docker containers cannot run without a virtualisation layer like they do on Linux?

[-] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

No idea, I just saw that there is a docker cask available, so I assume it works

[-] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Don’t worry about it

[-] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 months ago

Docker on macos runs in a virtual machine, for some people that might not be desirable.

[-] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Then what's the point of it lmao

[-] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 months ago

Some devs like macos, stuff still needs to be deployed to linux servers, possibly using docker containers.

[-] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I do, though I like my Mac hardware while the software is just good enough to not annoy me too much...

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
