It’s a big club of scabs shuffling between the ever diminishing number of umbrella corporations and their subsidiaries, who already own every market and supply chain.
It’s like IT. When they do their job competently you don’t notice much, but when they’re an incompetent narcissist they can insta-destroy everything.

This sounds bad for Docker if this guy was helping helm Oracle to where it is today.
The Docker runtime is probably ok as it is a tool instead of a community. The registry has a community aspect and is where we’ll likely see exploitation of vendor lock in. Luckily Docker was grounded well and you can set up your own registry.
Many have moved to or added the GitHub registry. It’s still a corporate controlled registry, but Microsoft are far more likely (and able) to eat the cost for developer goodwill.
I’ve got a registry running on my homelab that I haven’t quite moved fully over to yet.
Note this also builds oci compatible containers you can run with podman, kubernetes, etc.
It lets you develop on bare metal in an environment the same as the docker container and is reproducible rather than just repeatable.

The exciting thing about bringing in someone from outside the organization to take on a leading role is that they have no idea how anything fucking works and never really care.

Constant CEO turnover? Bringing in a AWS/Oracle Executive? RIP Docker.

He didn’t helm Oracle. He ran Oracle Cloud… much worse.
So… Is there an alternative to docker?
Podman

Agree. They’ll surely to pay the cost and they have a proven track record on handling any potential lock in.

I have already started switching to podman.
I’m never buying those pants again.
