I’m not quite sure what your hang-up is? Is it the word slave? If that is it, then the employees of Amazon are the wage-slaves that deserve due credit. Where as I might consider myself a slave in the sense that I find myself answering to their bidding.
- Jack up rates, yes master.
- Interrupt us with ads, sure go ahead master
- disrupting buying patterns, always you master
My sense of freedom from Amazon is not up for debate.
So what is your @hogmamma@lemmy.world relationship with Amazon?
Docker is a moderately sized step beyond VM.
I might recommend setting up VMs with something easy like VirtuaBox. When you have that figured out move on to Docker.
If your a casual user VMs are likely sufficient.
