I wonder why Bocker makes the frontpage so often. Is Docker still that controversial even in 2024? Why people don't recognize that it actually brought something useful (mainly, software distribution and easy of "run everywhere") to the table?

It hits the frontpage often because people assume that Docker is this super complex thing, but (at its most fundamental), it's actually quite elegant and understandable, which is interesting - a perfect HN story, in fact.

It is kinda complex, but all the complexity is in Linux, ~none is in 'Docker'.
