    People don’t actually do this, right? Docker inside docker inside a VM inside another VM? On windows? Right???

      I’ve ran Docker in LXC in a KVM before. I used LXC to have multiple containers on a VPS. Then I had to run something that works best with Docker, so I stuck Docker in an LXC.

        Windows itself is technically running in a VM if you have Hyper-V enabled (not quite that simple, but that’s a reasonable approximation). Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor which means it runs directly on the underlying physical hardware, and both Windows as well as any VMs you create are running on top of Hyper-V.

      Isnt that exactly what minikube is? Kubernetes in docker.

      I’ve used docker-in-docker images, but its usually not fun.

      I’ve seen docker inside a VM before but that was just a dev box for testing
