Being able to tell a fellow developer "do docker compose up and you can work" is a lot better than navigating them through the installation of a bunch of tools, each with their own quirks.

I'm not convinced anyone below google needs kubernetes, but containers for quickly setting up and running something on my machine are a blessing.

Agreed. Running a modern "computer program" is more than just executing a single binary file.

When you have a open-source application with five or six moving parts (monitors, backend, a database, etc.) being able to deploy it to a VPS with a single docker compose and have them all containers act on an internal dockerized network without conflicting ports, etc. is a GOD SEND.
