with containers, software maintainers also need to keep their image up-to-date with latest security fixes (most of them don't) - whereas these are usually handled by unattended-upgrades or similar in a VM. Then put out a new release and expect users to upgrade ASAP. Or rebuild and encourage redeploying the
latestimage every day or so, which is bad for other reasons (no warning for breaking changes, the software must be tested thoroughly after every commit tomaster).In short this adds the burden of proper OS/image maintenance for developers, something usually handled by distro maintainers.
