Not just OSX: anyone using WSL on windows is an offender too
But as a WSL user, dockerised Dev environments are pretty incredible to have running on a windows machine.
Does it required 64 gig of ram to run all my projects? Yes. Was it worth it? Also yes
My experience using docker on windows has been pretty awful, it would randomly become completely unresponsive, sometimes taking 100% CPU in the process. Couldn’t stop it without restarting my computer. Tried reinstalling and various things, still no help. Only found a GitHub issue with hundreds of comments but no working workarounds/solutions.
When it does work it still manages to feel… fragile, although maybe that’s just because of my experience with it breaking.
