I like how docker and kubernetes were supposed to solve dependency problems.

But then I read:

Prerequisites Docker 20.10+ Docker Compose 2.0+.

So now if I have app that can run on v19 I need docker for dockers :) to use CertMate because if I upgrade my other apps might be messed up.

Yeah, nobody should ever employ features that only work on newer versions of software because then someone somewhere might not be able to make use of them.

But less snarkily, maybe put in the work to hack up their dockerfiles if you want to do something they don't directly support.
