It does seem like Docker will be holding back containers from achieving their true promise, as it flounders looking for profitability and chasing k8s. Its sad that we're still moving around tar balls without advancing some of the tooling around it.
One of my biggest gripes as a non-k8s container user are that we are still keeping all this versioned cruft with every container. I would like to see an easier way to just get the latest binaries not dozens of tar hashes with versions going back to the first iteration of the container. Probably closer to singularity https://singularity.lbl.gov/
Another area is the ability to update containers in place. Hass.io https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/ does some of this with the ability to manage the container version from within the container, but seems like a little bit of a hack from what I've seen. Watchtower is closer to what I'd like https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower, but why can't we have a more integrated system built into the default tooling?
