Docker is so bad. I don’t think a lot of you young bloods understand that. The system is so incredibly fragmented. Tools like Portainer are great, but they’re a super pain in the ass to use with tools/software that include a dockerfile vs a compose file. There’s no interoperability between the two which makes it insurmountably time-consuming and stupid to deal with certain projects because they’re made for a specific build environment which is just antithetical to good computing.
Like right now, I have Portainer up. I want to test out exatorrent. I check out templates? Damn, not there. Now I gotta add my own template manually. Ok, cool. Half way done. Oops. It expects a docker-compose.yml. The exatorrent repository only has a Dockerfile. Damn, now I have to pull out the CLI and build this shit myself… Like, what’s the point?
Just learn docker
