LXC is quite different from Docker. Docker is used most of the time as an containerized package format for servers and as such is comparable to snap or flatpak on the desktop. You don't have to know Linux administration to use Docker, that is why it is so successfull.

LXC on the other hand is lightweight virtualization and one would have a hard time to use it without basic knowledge of administering Linux.
