  • Yeah, the US is very limited in ISP options. In my area there is one massive provider, and two or three small providers. The massive provider does up to 1Gb but it’s cable and speeds fluctuate. The other providers can manage 250Mb and that’s it. Also, upload on ALL plans available in my area caps out at 20Mb/s. It’s a joke and the city won’t let any fiber companies in because of an exclusivity contract with the big cable provider. It’s baaaaaad




  • Say you install with apt, and the app needs a dependency that breaks your setup. You use docker to utilize your os, but containerize dependencies. You can also better organize which containers use your computer’s network, and which use a virtual network where you can redirect an incoming port to avoid conflicts.

    Containers are like VMs, but for an application instead of a whole OS, though you can put multiple apps in one container. Good for if they need to share files.

    For a more visual approach, look into Portainer. It gives you an admin page you can open in your browser to manage docker containers.
