BlueBuild<p>A rare double merge just occurred. 😮 :git_logo:</p><p>We have just released `default-flatpaks@v2` for automatically setting up your Flatpaks in a custom image, which should be way more robust and maintainable than the old version.

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"If you're looking to optimize your containerization workflow, here's the good news - the ecosystem has evolved far beyond Docker's original design.</p><p>Docker revolutionized software deployment by making containerization a standard, but the ecosystem has grown to address specific use cases that Docker wasn't originally designed for. Modern alternatives like Podman, containerd, and CRI-O offer specialized features like daemonless designs, rootless operations, and native Kubernetes integration. These tools don't just offer incremental improvements, but instead they represent fundamental shifts in how we think about container security, performance, and workflow integration.</p><p>The container ecosystem has matured beyond Docker's monolithic approach, with specialized runtimes optimizing for specific use cases. Whether you're running microservices in production, developing locally, or managing enterprise workloads, there's likely a tool that's better suited to your specific requirements.</p><p>In this guide, I'll walk you through the most promising Docker alternatives in 2025 and help you choose the right tool for your specific needs."</p><p><a href="https://www.datacamp.com/blog/docker-alternatives" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">datacamp.com/blog/docker-alter</span><span class="invisible">natives</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DevOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DevOps</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Docker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Docker</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Containers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Containers</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Kubernetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kubernetes</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Podman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Podman</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Containerd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Containerd</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/CICD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CICD</span></a></p>

Here I'm testing that this Docker manager works also with Orbstack-managed containers, meanwhile I mess with the containers in Orbstack. So far so good!

Again, based on Deluxe UI. No Docker Desktop, no browser, no QT, GTK, JVM, .NET CLR, Electron, or Tauri. Nothing of that. Just one simple native binary.

Thought bubble: Custom uCore as my NAS 🤔

Everything I do on my FreeBSD NAS is doable on uCore, but the main thing I have to think about is how to replicate my ISP-proof-FreeBSD-jail-using-ProtonVPN-for-torrenting setup. I could try using a VM, but I'm thinking LXC/Incus would be better.

As I recall, LXC was kind of not really straightforward to configure. If I could just edit a single configuration file for everything like I do with FreeBSD jails that would be great. Or even a modular, per-container configuration file setup.

I also should look into Cockpit as a web UI. I haven't used it in a while, so there's liable to be new features I haven't tried yet. It would be pretty cool if there was a Cockpit module for Incus/LXC containers.
