Fuck Docker
It works, but it gaslights you about everything.
Docker is amazing when it works. And when it doesn’t?
It’s a smug little daemon that eats your RAM, forgets your volumes, lies about its health, and restarts things for reasons it refuses to explain.
Scene 1: Everything Is Fine™
You run:
docker ps
It tells you:
azuracast Up 30 seconds
db Up 31 seconds
nginx Up 30 seconds
Everything is up.
Except the site is down.
The UI is dead.
curl gives you nothing.
The logs? Empty.
Docker: “Everything’s running fine 👍”
Scene 2: Logs Are a Lie
docker logs azuracast
Returns:
Just enough output to give you hope
Then nothing
Then silence
You tail it.
You restart it.
You exec into it.
It’s just a tomb with a PID.
Scene 3: It Forgets Everything
You reboot the host.
Suddenly:
Your containers forget their volumes
Your docker-compose.override.yml is ignored
Your networks vanish
And the bridge interface is now possessed
Scene 4: Volumes Are Haunted
docker volume rm azuracast_station_data
Error: volume is in use
By what?
You stopped all containers. You nuked the services.
It’s still in use — by ghosts.
Eventually you just:
rm -rf /var/lib/docker
Because therapy is cheaper than debugging this.
Scene 5: docker-compose Is a Trick
docker-compose down
docker-compose up -d
Now:
Some things are gone
Some things are doubled
Your stations/ folder is missing
And your database container is holding a grudge
You try to roll back.
There is no roll back. Only sadness.
Scene 6: It’s Not Even Docker Anymore
Modern Docker is:
Docker
Which is actually Moby
Which uses containerd
Which is managed by nerdctl
Which builds with buildkit
Which logs via journald
Which stores data in an OCI-conforming mess of layers
None of it can be managed with just docker.
Final Thought
Docker is powerful.
Docker is everywhere.
Docker changed the world.
But once you run real infrastructure on it?
Fuck Docker.
