Without kubernetes, Docker Desktop is fine. Been running it for years on my current and previous mac book pro (the 2012 model). Docker performance has never really been an issue for me. The bundled kubernetes seems to burn a lot of CPU though; so I keep that disabled.

I work with other people in teams and I don't get to tune every project I deal with to be just right for my tastes and hardware. So being able to run their stuff as is with emulation is preferable to me having to customize everything before I get to run it.

Clarifying a bit - I can't start up the Docker Desktop Kubernetes - If I take a look at the image downloaded (docker/desktop-kubernetes) it only shows tags for amd64.

When I try to spin up kubernetes, the UI just shows 'starting...' while the logs show the image won't work with this architecture.

Anyone else see this? Any workaround?

It's been taking a while, and the kubernetes is still 'starting...' - Did you have the same issue?
