OrbStack is a fast, light, and simple way to run Docker containers and Linux machines on macOS. You can think of it as a supercharged WSL and Docker Desktop alternative, all in one easy-to-use app.

I just caught wind of this and have yet to try it. Does anyone here have any experience with OrbStack that they can speak to? ๐Ÿ‘€

neat! I've been using Colima for a while, so it's cool to see they have a comparison in their FAQ .

bit leery of it eventually switching to a paid model tho

I just tried it out today and wow- it starts up instantly. Now I'm curious to see the resource usage compared to Docker Desktop.

this will be paid products after beta, right?
