My first thought as well, docker desktop overhead is pretty bad, would be awesome to see this land natively in DD. By my estimate this could happen, seeing as Docker has historically tried to improve performance but quickly had to accept platform limitations… would only be natural to settle DD over to containers

Well, you can avoid the Docker Desktop tax by not running Docker Desktop. colima is a perfectly usable implementation of Docker for macOS, without the bloat of Docker Desktop.

That said, colima still has the expensive VM that upthread is mentioning.

OrbStack is great also

I agree, it’s so much better than Docker Desktop, Podman, and Colima. And not just by a small margin, it feels several orders of magnitude faster and more lightweight thanks to its WSL2-like architecture.

Postman Desktop too

[rawland]

You mean Podman Desktop?

[phinnaeus]

Yes, thank you iOS autocorrect.

until they remove the free tier and raise prices, once their user base is sufficiently reliant on it.

I had no idea they have a free tier. I've been paying for a couple of years and it's been so worth it.
