I have a similar rant with Docker.
On macOS there's a Docker app. You can use it to install stuff, see what it's up to, restart it and whatnot. On Linux you have to remember what commands you have to use in Terminal.
Why?!
There are loads of us out here who would appreciate a more user friendly way to use FOSS, but we're made to feel like fuckin noobs because we don't want to spend ages typing in commands when we could just press a couple of fucking buttons.
Anyway, apart from that I've been enjoying my adventures in Linux.
You're probably talking about Docker Desktop. It may not be on Linux (or at least your distro or whatever) because it's not actually FLOSS. If you want to use Docker with a GUI I've had success with Rancher Desktop which is made by SUSE and is FLOSS. It's still Docker (unlike podman which is not technically Docker), but it has a GUI for some stuff too.
I tried installing Docker Desktop at work and realized the license doesn't actually allow that without paying. It was weirdly difficult to install Docker by itself on Mac so that led me to finding Rancher Desktop.
