Ask HN: Are you really using Docker, or just talking about it?

1 pointsby ecaronover 10 years ago
The recent onslaught of Docker topics (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hn.algolia.com&#x2F;?q=docker#!&#x2F;story&#x2F;past_week&#x2F;0&#x2F;docker) has been fantastic to read, as a Linux user. But:<p>* I know a large percentage of the HN-reading devs are Mac users<p>* On Linux, there&#x27;s almost no performance different of interacting with Docker<p>* On Mac, even with the newest boot2docker, the performance is a heck of a long way from &quot;I didn&#x27;t notice I wasn&#x27;t on the bare metal&quot;<p>So is all the conversation about Docker just the Linux people, or are there actually HN Mac users that don&#x27;t mind the awful performance?<p><i>I know this question could posted on Superuser&#x2F;StackOverflow&#x2F;etc, but I care more about the real coders than people going for points.</i>
