There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15 containers and people not wanting to turn the post into a container measuring contest.
But now I am curious, what are your counts? I would guess those of you running k*s would win out by pod scaling
docker ps | wc -l
For those wanting a quick count.
Podman toolboxes, which layer a do gained over your user file system, allowing you to make toolbox specific changes to the system that only affect that toolbox.
I think it’s oringinally meant for development of desktop environments and OS features, but you can put most command line apps in them without much feauture breakage.
I always saw them pitched by Fedora as the blessed way to run CLI applications on an immutable host.
That’s why I use them, but they are missing the in ramp to getting this working nicely for regular users.
E.g. how do I install neovim with toolbox and get Wayland clipboard working, without doing a bunch of manual work? It’s easy to add to my ostree, but that’s not really the way it should be.
I ended up making a bunch of scripts to manage this, but now I feel like I’m one step away from just using nixos.
