Apple Container turned my Mac into a self-hosting war machine

When you think about self-hosting, Docker is probably the first container runtime that comes to mind. While it’s not perfect by any means, Docker is easy to work with, has plenty of documentation, and includes its own ecosystem of neat utilities. But if you’re on macOS, Docker, and its associated services come with a lot of performance overhead, especially since Apple’s flagship operating system uses a LinuxKit-based VM to run your containers.
