But I also love simplicity. For years my home-lab was rocking a few Docker containers running on Synology. Mostly due to no simple alternative (thanks Synology!), but still. However now I'm moving to FreeBSD based home-lab, and everything which was running on Docker is supposed to run in jails. Much, much [simplier](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PivpCKEiQOQ) and this way I run what I want, not what Linuxserver has prepared. As of today, my entire infrastructure is migrated. I no longer need to care about Docker dancing for VC's moneys - at least personally; at work I am still forced to use it... and a Mac. Some services will follow soon (like [Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.org/)), as I want them to behave differently but today I have stopped the last Docker container. Docker _used to be_ great. What was once open, is now a company focuses on enshittification. They won't be missed.
