I thought this might be an interesting read until I saw the blurb with 4 hashtags and 4 emoticons in just 4 sentences.

To fully grasp how containers actually work, you should read the Linux kernel documentation on namespaces and permission control via capabilities.

Hmm, I thought the aspect of demystification would also include a brief explanation on, how namespaces and capabilities work.

Docker is declining? Why didn't anybody told me that?

The people saying that are just pushing some other product in you.

Please don't push any product into me. I do not consent :D

This doesn't really explain anything. Not least why I should use it.
