What problems is containerd solving and how is that benefiting you?

I chose containerd as my container runtime for my home-lab Kubernetes setup. It was the only one out of cri-o, and Docker that worked reliably on the armhf architecture, while still being light enough for low-resource environments like Raspberry Pis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
