It is my hope that Docker continues to accelerate down its current path toward replacement by other systems such as podman.
I suspect that Apple has little motivation to add a Linux kernel alongside the existing BSD-compatible kernel, even though macOS does have a built-in hypervisor framework/API.
BSD containers (e.g. jails) seem like a better fit than Linux containers (e.g. docker, lxc) for a BSD-based system.
