Same here. There are exceptions to everything, but to me it feels like if someone distributes their work via Docker they are actually not on top of the complexity they are trying to deal with. Pushing that complexity into something like a Docker image doesn't make it go away. At best, a bit chunk of bloat is generated with at least trashes your disk cache. At worst, a big hunk of unmaintained software is waiting in a corner to be taken apart and hacked to pieces.

Docker images have an air of really big bit graves.
