Can you elaborate a little on what you don't like about Rancher?
Have been looking at moving my org over to it (30 engineers), seems quite nice so far - built-in in k3s is great and it works well on my macbook
Its docker drop in support is lacking. There are instances where I expect it to do something and it errors or does something bizarre.
The interface is very basic. I had to get plugins for very basic functionality that has been built into Docker Desktop for years, like Logs Explorer.
It seemingly always prompts for Admin Access on the computer, even though Docker long ago stopped doing this and has worked without admin access for some time.
The prompt for enabling admin access is funny. If you don't have it already, it will prompt you to enable it, if you have it enabled, it will pop up another window, very similar, and the wording will say "Startup Rancher Desktop without administrator access" but its easy to miss the wording difference, cause the font is small.
I've had stability issues, containers randomly crashing or the daemon going down out of nowhere. Happened more than once.
It claims to be a drop in for Docker CLI, but while I don't have the list handy at the moment, I know this isn't true, particularly with docker-compose
I could go on, but its still really rough around the edges.
