There’s close to no performance loss, it’s better for security, it makes it extremely easy for developers to ship something that just works, it allows easy updating, and much more.
I prefer docker over almost anything now, and it has made my life much easier.
my SD card in my ras pi got corrupted recently. Thankfully I had my docker directory backed up. I pulled the docker directory, docker compose up -d and within about 20 minutes (not including downloading time) I was back up and running. Docker is a godsend. all my apps were exactly as they were before the corruption.
