docker is bloated. i'm almost certain half of every image is dead weight. unused apt packages, full distros for a single binary, shell configs nobody touches. but the incentive is to make things work, not make them small. so bloat wins.

still, i use it every day and i don't see what replaces it. every "docker killer" solves one problem while ignoring the 50 things docker does well enough.

Docker released "Docker Hardened Images" last year and made them free. They contain less bloat.

Buying more RAM for your server or only touching a select few images that are run most often is also a way to make things work. It might not be the most elegant software engineering approach, but it just works.
