Gitmoji: Generic container emoji instead of that docker whale
Hello @carloscuesta :sunglasses:!
There are other/better container applications that docker, for example podman, which you can use in almost completely the same way. I’d therefore like to alter that whale to a more generic “containery” emoji. As there is no container emoji, the package 📦 one could be used, but this is used already. There’s still the present package 🎁, but the difference is not that high and could lead to issues. There sadly is no emoji for fright trains or fright ships (which usually transport containers). What’s your opinion? Would be great if this here could stay generic!
I also could imagine a (small) fright train for containers and a (huge) fright ship for orchestration (kubernetes / docker swarm).

Yeah!
I think it's a good idea to find an emoji for the container concept rather than having only one for Docker!

The coffin ⚰ would be some sort of container… 🙈
Can maybe someone request a container emoji from the official emoji committee, or whoever produces them?

What about 🧠 ? a container is a fully working brain that deals with environment and in/out signals 😊

🧠 is already in use for: https://github.com/carloscuesta/gitmoji/pull/239

@fbruetting I agree gitmoji should not prefer any specific service. Removing 🐳 would be a breaking change for gitmoji.
On the other hand, everyone knows Docker, and whale is iconic. I think for the time of beign it would suffice to update the description only, that it applies to any container service.

+1 for keeping the emoji and renaming the label from Work about Docker to Work about containers.

The 🐳 gitmoji has been removed since #452. So this discussion is now off topic. If you want to have a new gitmoji related to the use of containers feel free to open a new issue 😊

No @johannchopin, the fact that the Docker gitmoji has been removed doesn't make the issue off-topic since it's still about adding a container gitmoji. Please re-open.

I still support the whale emoji, mostly because I can't think of any other emoji that suits it better 😅

Can we agree in this "task" then?
Add :ship: emoji for work related to docker

Sorry to be a party pooper but is this gitmoji not a bad pattern? It's like having a gitmoji for work related to an API which makes no sense since if you work on a API the gitmoji can be use in every commit. If you work on Docker you will mostly use the 🔧 gitmoji since it's configuration.

@carloscuesta What do you think about it ? You were in favor of this gitmoji before.

The issue itself doesn't have so many upvotes. I don't know if it's worth of being introduced or not.
