Do you run Docker? Because I remember having to VPN out to a client that used that range, and it caused conflicts where our docker containers couldn't reach the client side to fetch data.

Docker defaults to 172.16.0.0/16.

We chose Go as the development language. Go produces statically compiled binaries that include all dependencies. The only external deps are wireguard, nftables, nmap, etc. All easy stuff. So we have no need for Docker. We publish binaries for ARM64 and AMD64. Avoiding Docker has made it much easier to work with.

I had this happen at home. I'm not convinced it was a good idea to choose default subnets as /20.

It was pretty easy to cause myself problems with Docker compose. Eventually I run out of subnets in the 172.16 range and it happily created subnets in the 192.168. range. Some of them overlapped with subnets on my LAN.

Yes, we use Docker (or podman) but generally never rely on Docker’s internal address ranges.
