Docker (on M1 Mac), I can access using Bridge but not Host mode?

Hey!

I would recommend the Rpi build for your scenario.
Datacenters etc are all (majority) running Linux. Basically only Endusers are into Windows and Mac world, hence the stack support.

Same issue here

you could follow the MACvLan approach but i guess you are faster with the Rpi build it can also run 247/7 with lower power consumption.
