Docker is declining? Why didn’t anybody told me that?

The people saying that are just pushing some other product in you.

Please don’t push any product into me. I do not consent :D

To fully grasp how containers actually work, you should read the Linux kernel documentation on namespaces and permission control via capabilities.

Hmm, I thought the aspect of demystification would also include a brief explanation on, how namespaces and capabilities work.
