Hey, look. It's the solution to all of Linux's problems.
>>108017653docker is shit. nixos solved all operating system problems. winjeets and itrannies not invited.
>>108017657>nixos solved all operating system problems.Then why is Docker/Podman used be millions of professionals while NixOS is used by a smattering of trannies? Hmmm?
>>108017657>Need to customize application>Dockerfile takes 5 minutes to construct even without AI.>Nix requires your first born and 10% of your earnings until you die.
>>108017681>Nix requires your first born and 10% of your earnings until you die.what? it takes 2 minutes to write a container flake.

>>108017653If Docker ran on BSD, I could dump Lintroon forever. Jails are great, but aren't as portable/simple.
>>108017696I don't use software with dandruff
Docker literally uses Linux tooling and depends on Unix architecture to work. Containers are nothing more than abstractions to cgroup, namespace, seccomp, chroot etc. it's like saying GitHub solved git
I just want to run programs why is there always some tool I need to use to run programs on linux? First it was the compiler> you have to build it yourself from source!Then it was the package manager> you have to install it from our repo!Now it's containers> you have to run it in our environment!What a great example of how free Linux really is.

>>108017657>>108017674>>108017681/g/ is unable to understand nuance because it's filled with stupid nocoders. Docker and Nix/NixOS have orthogonal usecase, there's just a certain venn diagram overlap of docker usage where Nix/NixOS actually takes over. In fact, with Nix you can make very good docker images because you get as close to "FROM SCRATCH"-images as humanly possible.https://ryantm.github.io/nixpkgs/builders/images/dockertools/I've used NixOS for years and I still enjoy making docker images.
>>108019299I guess you could just use appimages for everything. Put all that shit into your "/bin/program files" folder. You can even make a "program files (x86)" folder as well to feel better
Podman moggs
>>108017653that's not podman
>>108017653>one more dependancyhard pass
>>108017657>itrannies not invited.nix-darwin exists tho
>>108020541im not going to learn retarded autistic DSL if docker already does the thing. If I were to choose I would rather go with Guix. At least it has non-retarded DSL, but actual language. Why would I kearn a fucking language for configuration when I can just use Scheme that can be used for other things?
>>108019299>just want to run programsUse flatpaks. It's just a container with all of the shit the program needs to run.Some retard nerd will jump in and aktuwally this post, but they're a gay autist and the details don't matter.
>>108017653No shit. That's pretty much what Flatpak and Distrobox are. As long as you primarily use software as a Flatpak or inside a Distrobox container it's completely irrelevant which distro you use.In fact fuck it, all Linux software should be distributed as a Distrobox container.
>>108017653Been quite a while i don't get a hard dependency hell problem, and i do crap like running shit extracted from debian and all that.Also using chroots is much more elegant.
