Yes! [Installing QIIME 2 using Docker — QIIME 2 2023.9.2 documentation](https://docs.qiime2.org/2023.9/install/virtual/docker/)

And here's a tutorial on Qiime2 and Docker: [Running The Moving Pictures Tutorial In Docker (2018.11)](https://forum.qiime2.org/t/running-the-moving-pictures-tutorial-in-docker-2018-11/7105)

(Qiime2 is a great fit for Docker because it includes a lot dependencies and the devs have built a comprehensive integration and testing platform to make Docker images. 🐋 )

EDIT: A mac will not solve your network problems, but the team that gives you computers can offer great advice! Ask them about installing conda packages and see what they say!

I use Qiime on Windows 10 with [WSL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install). It works great! 🪟
