@Varpie I'm just now reading the details. So, the free community edition won't get version 3.0, it's also basically saying FU community edition users, you stay at 2.x. It doesn't explicitly say the CE edition is dead, but that is what I imply with that statement.
It's been very convenient for docker container management. I'm fine with using something else, the bigger question is - should I move to Kubernetes? There seems to be some sort of debate going on that Docker is dying.
@box464 From my personal experience, having learnt and used Kubernetes over the last few years at work and looked at the containerization ecosystem at home too, I don't think Docker as a company will die, but it probably won't be the first pick containerization engine in the future. Docker has paved the way, but now there are standards built on top (the OCI specifications) and Docker Inc. is a for-profit company that now has to compete with free options, so they are focusing on enterprise customers.
Kubernetes is a large beast that is designed for very large scale architectures, but there are some lightweight distributions that take care of a lot of the heavy machinery, and you can comfortably manage your resources by learning about 5-6 types of Kubernetes resources that are fairly similar to Docker Compose. I personally think it's a good thing to learn at least the basics of Kubernetes, if you already know Docker Compose or are familiar with Cloud computing architecture, it has a lot of similar concepts.
