forking doesn't really help with the underlying problem that docker is a layer to run on top of Linux's KVM. at a certain point though, it's become standard enough though that BSD not having a good way to support docker, or any other CRI containerization service for that matter, is a BSD failure, not a containerization failure
My understanding is that this is only true for docker desktop, which there's not really any reason to use on a server.
Sure, since containers use the host's kernel, any Linux containers do need to either have Linux as the host or run a VM (as docker desktop does by default), but that's not particularly unique to docker
