FWIW, I never run docker on my local machine (I develop on a remote machine), benefits: remote machine os + setup is very close to production and GBit bandwidth up and down at my hoster is so much nicer when working with Docker images.

VS Code Remote SSH makes this a really nice experience too.

It really does, I started using it recently, and I was very impressed.

The dev containers that power codespaces are pretty exciting tech imo.

> If I wasn't freelance, I could probably get away with some cloud instance to run all my docker stuff, but I'm dealing with too many different environments, for clients with various different legal requirements making this simply 'not an option'.

While not the exact same reasons as GP, I also need to be able to do this locally.

Even with legal restrictions: just put an Ubuntu server at home and ssh to it. Then you wouldn't have the GBit connection but still better than using Docker on a non-production OS.
