From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Depending on what you're using it for. For companies it feels like the tide is shifting toward using k8s and not caring what actually runs your containers.
That's been the case for years now. No sane company runs production workloads on Docker or Docker compose. There's niche solutions like Hashicorps Nomad or Docker Swarm, but most will probably either use a Hyperscalers container offering and/or use Kubernetes.
They do, and then they write blog posts about how the complexity is killing their teams productivity.
That's for production, in dev Docker (or podman) is very much used.
