Like, the whole point was to effectively use linux kernel namespaces with cgroups in an intelligent way to give VM-like isolation, but non-emulated performance - and supposedly not having to deal with image size bloat from the OS like you get in VMs.
What we got was an unholy mashup of difficult to debug, bloated images and ridiculously complex deployment and maintenance mechanisms like kubernetes.
I just do old school /home/app_name deployments with systemd unit files, and user-level permissions.
Oh, and it's webscale[1].
