I’m a retired Unix admin. It was my job from the early '90s until the mid '10s. I’ve kept somewhat current ever since by running various machines at home. So far I’ve managed to avoid using Docker at home even though I have a decent understanding of how it works - I stopped being a sysadmin in the mid '10s, I still worked for a technology company and did plenty of “interesting” reading and training.
It seems that more and more stuff that I want to run at home is being delivered as Docker-first and I have to really go out of my way to find a non-Docker install.
I’m thinking it’s no longer a fad and I should invest some time getting comfortable with it?
Welcome to the party 😀
If you want a good video tutorial that explains the inner workings of docker so you understand what’s going on beneath the surface(without drowning in the details), let me know and I’ll paste it tomorrow. Writing from bed atm 😴
I’d like that please

LearnCantrill does a good job at being straightforward and clear in his courses. His networking fundamentals is also pretty good.
