I'm looking to set up different containers for specific tasks like school projects, music production, and art creation. I want to know if there's an ideal way to containerize these applications, or whether I should consider using a virtual machine instead. What Linux distro would be best for achieving this goal?

I personally think using containers and VMs can complicate things for daily use. What's pushing you to seek that level of isolation?
If you're going for containerization, Alpine Linux is a fantastic choice. It's super lightweight and perfect for building Docker containers. You'll have the flexibility you need for different uses!

I guess I just have a bit of OCD! I don't like cluttering up my disk space, plus having dedicated containers would really help with portability for different projects.
