I'll say that as someone who stopped using docker and went back to deploying from source in lxc containers: dockers is a great tool for the majority of people and that is exactly what it aims to be, easily reusable in as many different setups as possible.
On the flip side, yes it may happen that you would not benefit from docker for a reason or another. I don't, in my case docker only adds another layer over my already containerized setup and many of the services I deploy are already built from source in a CI/CD workflow and deployed through ansible.
I do have other issues with docker but those are usually less with the tool and more with how some project use docker as a mean to replace proper deployment documentations.
