JsonBoa29763ydude, you do not need a VM to run a docker container. You can run it in WSL or natively in Mac/Unix
-
@JsonBoa i know. But I don't want this on my machine. I want it on my server but away from my other server stuff.
-
JsonBoa29763yshouldn't the container daemon separate things? you can even give your container its own MAC address
-
@JsonBoa it does but I just want it separated more. Cause this is a game server I'm letting my friends join. And having it on a vm makes me feel better
If it was just me I'd do it without vm. But I want it more isolated just because -
@jester5537 If you properly setup your docker container, I would argue that a VM provides no benefit.

JsonBoa29763y@EpicofGilgamesh , he has a non-linux setup running a debian VM running docker. Well, WSL ain't perfect, but is one fewer layer. It ain't a production depl either, so whatever works I guess.
Only took 20 minutes to setup a Debian vm and get the satisfactory game server running in docker. And most of that was waiting. I feel so smart 🤓 compared to even just last year when I was googling basic commands linux commands
