Hacker News Reader

I am very much aware of this, but that's exactly what I am arguing. Articles setting out to explain Kubernetes should not perpetuate the false equality of docker and containers.

If you use `docker build/run` in your bash, it will actually be more confusing IMO saying k8s "dropped docker(shim) support". This fact should be a footnote for the curious reader, surely on an introduction article.

It would do the industry a world of good to move past conflating Docker with Linux containers, containerization, images, etc.

There are tons of ways to build containers without Docker. You're effectively encouraging propagating confusion.

Indeed, and I have zero idea why people don’t use something like LXC and still prefer Docker. Marketing is hell sometimes.
