but why use this instead of just regular docker? Sorry, totally ignorant. I'm sure most people looking at this project will just already understand this context.
Docker for Mac is not free software. Their EULA even prohibits disclosure of benchmarking result: https://www.docker.com/legal/docker-software-end-user-license-agreement

On the other hand, Moby, aka Docker for Linux, is free software (Moby vs Docker is like Mozilla/Chromium vs Netscape/Chrome), but Moby lacks several novel features of containerd, such as:
- Running a container ahead of completion of pulling the image (aka lazy-pulling, eStargz)
- Running an encrypted container
- Importing and exporting OCI archives

The advantage is that you can set up a Linux machine with containerd quickly.
Performance optimization is almost left as TODO.
