Just to clarify, this requires Mac OS 26 Tahoe for "container" doesn't it? So those of us holding out on Sequoia who can't stand the broken glass UI or what's called and the other undesired features need to stick to Docker desktop.

Yes’n’t: https://github.com/apple/container/blob/main/docs/technical-...

> container relies on the new features and enhancements present in macOS 26. You can run container on macOS 15, but you will need to be aware of some user experience and functional limitations. There is no plan to address issues found with macOS 15 that cannot be reproduced on macOS 26.

The issues are around networking.

It seems macOS Golden Gate (the upcoming version) fixes quite a few of the problems with Tahoe, so you might consider skipping Tahoe entirely.

Maybe hold 1 release back, but other than that, I don't think "holding out" on macOS releases has ever been a winning strategy.

In the end, macOS model presupposes users moving to the latest release sooner rather than later.

I turned off what "glass" UI I could with config, and it's not too different than Sequoia, got used to it pretty quick. Obviously the things not supported on an old OS will keep increasing, until eventually it is EOL'd.

Yeah I use Tahoe and I can't stand the liquid glass.

It looks like Golden Gate fixes this design a lot.
