How does Cloudron work? What does it do? etc :)

Forgot to mention sandstom.io, which implements containers by itself and does not use docker.

Changing the run time will break custom apps, so I think we are married to Docker until that project lives.

That's not quite true.. remember Nestybox?
Their runtime called "sysbox" is a drop in replacement for runc which docker uses by default.

@robi From what I remember, sysbox was like a backend to docker, it doesn't replace docker. Unlike the other things I mentioned which will replace docker.

@girish you should take a look at it again.

@robi Would be interesting to know what systemd-detect-virt prints for nestybox

I just found that https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-detect-virt.html has quite a nice list of container and vm technologies.

That's easy to test, just change one line in the docker config or specify it on the CLI and bring up a container using sysbox, then run the tool.
