You should also clarify that you pulled your statements out of your butt to look edgy. Everyone in every team I worked for the last ten years use docker. Docker is old tech. If you and your cavemen devs ignore what it is, that's your problem.

Sure, modern containerization is objectively good and should be used pretty much everywhere unless you have a strong reason not to, but the unfortunate reality is that it is nowhere near as universal as it should be.

Docker is old tech, yes, doesn't mean every dev in the world uses it. They don't. Jails/zones are even older (hell a chroot). Did developers all use those before due to them being 'old tech'. No.

Any reasonably big project uses docker because it's a very simple way to have the exact environment in both production and in dev. Also it is helpful for keeping things isolated. In all projects I've worked for the las ten years for several major companies, docker has been a requirement.

I'm aware of what docker is, I've been using it myself since it's inception and the tech I listed even before that. I'd recommend not assuming everything you have seen applies everywhere, to everyone else.

"Just 30% of developers say they use containers in any part of their workflow." https://www.docker.com/blog/2025-docker-state-of-app-dev/

So, yea. Large companies, yes, for sure. But that's not 100% - is it.
