I usually work on small-scale experimental projects, so I prefer using Docker Compose to combine containerized services. It lets me manage each service independently, and since I only use resources when needed, it's also cost-effective.
Hey, I'm the retiree who barely knows how to turn on a PC – containers? Sounds like a surprise gift from Amazon! 😅 I'll just throw everything into one pot, like Grandma's stew – at least then everything cooks together! 🍲💻
