I have ditched docker desktop on macOS for OrbStack.

OrbStack looks pretty nice, BUT an $8/mo/user subscription? Blech.

Honestly just the debug shell alone is worth a good amount of $. You can remotely run shell commands on your deployed docker container and install packages that are not available in the base image without modifying the base image which can be a life saver.

Let alone the local resource monitor, increased, performance, automated local domains (no more complicated docker network settings to get your app working with local host), and more.
