On the other hand, kinks will be ironed out only with the help of early adopters willing to take the leap and try doing "real" work.

More power to them, unfortunately I don't get paid to QA docker :/

Do you only do what you are paid to?

That being said, I'll also hold off a little while getting an Apple Silicon device, until various kinks are worked out. And until I can get a 16" MacBook Pro.

I only work when I'm paid to work, and debugging containers and digging through stack traces sounds like work to me.

I totally get that some people like that kind of thing and have the time for it. I dont.
