Our 200 developers all switched from docker desktop to rancher after Docker tried to jack up the price about a year and a half ago, along with a bunch of legal threats. Their attitude was so piss poor, we went from debating paying the higher fees to just fucking them off entirely.
Hmm, I might have to do that at work. We pay for Docker, but we don't actually use any of the features from Docker, the service. We build our images locally, and production pulls from AWS ECR, yet we all have Docker Hub licenses because my boss felt like we should be paying for it.
Docker works fine, but honestly, we don't need it, and I have been considering eliminating Docker on my self-hosted stuff.
