I've been used that on MacOS for whole year and it works like a charm and boosted performance
especially for files and network which were too slow otherwise when dealing with building and running containers.
Glad you mention it ! -

Glad you mention it !@MorganGeek so on mac you just stop docker deskop and install/run orbstack ?
I use docker desktop to provide engine to build custom cloudron app packages. Does Orbstack support that ?
Always bit nervous of disturbing an existing working environment.I used to use Parallels to run other OS but I stopped subscription as struggled to justify the cost.
