Damn straight. Yes, docker has rootless now, although I rarely see it in the wild (as I’m converting it to rootless podman), no one seems to care or know. I was using user level quadlets (really like the syntax and structure) before that, and you get SELinux as well. Everything that doesn’t really need it should not have root, pretty much the basic level of Linux (back to Unix) security and Docker is like, ‘Don’t Care, Got Root ;)’.
I’ve been converting my entire docker stack to rootless. You run into a number of issues where certain applications simply cannot handle having that limited access, especially on smaller or more niche projects. The documentation doesn’t offer solutions so you are just shit out of luck unless you can troubleshoot it.
