If done correctly, it also forces devs to write smaller more maintainable packages.

Big if though. I've seen many a terrible containerized monolithic app.

I've seen many a terrible containerized monolithic app.

I've seen plenty of self-hosters complain when an app needs multiple containers, to the point where people make unofficial containers containing everything. I used to get downvoted a LOT on Reddit when I commented saying that separating individual systems/daemons into separate containers is the best practice with Docker.

Separate containers works like a dream when one app starts shitting the bed, gets auto-cycled, and everyone else just chills. Not surprised on the Reddit downvotes though. That place is so culty, especially now.
