What's the problem with Docker Desktop? The last features are amazing, in Builds you have a lot of insights about your build docker image and see all logs, cache, status, build time and more 🐳
actually it's fine since most of the memory here is a vm running gnu/linux distribution. cause 'docker' (read: containers is a capability of a Linux Kernel). you can not run 'docker' on a win or mac without running linux machine somewhere (this could be you lap or you lab machine, but somewhere you need to run linux kernel and related stuff. that's the basics).
the problem with docker desktop is a licence, not the amount of resource it uses.
btw, I don't actually use docker desktop on my Mac, prefer Colima, but I suppose there might be some setting to lower the memory usage of a GNU/Linux machine running under the hood of the docker desktop.

Docker Desktop needs 5GB of memory when idling on my laptop, I just think thats crazy. Unusable if you only have 8GB of memory
Got ya! I've got M3 Macbook Pro with 16 GB memory and my next one will be definitely 32 GB! 🔥
Yea i'm also on a M2 Macbook Pro with 16 GB memory and I'm struggling lol, next one def. 32 GB :D

I know how docker works, but how is this not a problem anyway? Will have to hceck out Colima!
+1 on Colima. Specially if you're on an ARM64 Mac.
Interesting, didn't know Colima before. Thanks for sharing!
