A lack of niche OS compatibility isn't much of a downside. Working on 99.9% of all active OS's is excellent coverage for a skftware suite.

Besides, freebsd has podman support, which is something like 95% cross compatible with docker. You basically do have docker support on freebsd, just harder.

Just POSIX and no other compatibility? Pretty niche, man.
