Containers != services.
I don't think I am better than anyone. I jumped into these comments because docker was pushed as superior, unprompted.
Installing and configuring does not an expert make, agreed; but that's not what I said.
I would say I'm pretty knowledgeable about the things I host though, seeing as I am a contributor and / or package maintainer for a number of them...
Correct, not all containers are for services. I would never say that docker is superior. I would however say that containers are (I can be pedantic too). They're version-controlled, they come with the correct dependencies, etc... There are many reasons why developing with containers is superior and I'm sure you're aware of them already. Everyone is moving to do exactly that. There are always edge cases, but those are few and far between these days.
