Linux containers feel like weak imitations of jails and zones found in FreeBSD and Solaris/illumos, for that matter.

Except the user interface for them on FreeBSD compared to i.e. docker is atrocious.

Why not Jails? It was pretty much the first to provide this in Unix land. I guess the advantage of Docker / containers was / is the nice TUI for developers as well as Hub. We never had a ‘jailshub’ in FreeBSD.

Somehow I think Tru64 and HP-UX vaults had it first.
