Generally, you should use the official docker image:

## Alternate Images
Generally speaking, we suggest you use the official image instead of these alternates, unless you have a specific reason to use one of these over the official. We do not provide support for issues which specifically relate to using third-party images [LSIO or other].
One alternate image we see a lot is the Linuxserver image, due to its prominent placement in unRAID and linuxserver's general reputation.

## LXML Images
### LXML Images
In March 2024, lxml, a prerequisite for operating Kometa, ceased support for older CPUs. This impedes users from running Kometa on unsupported hardware.
In March 2024, `lxml`, a prerequisite for operating Kometa, ceased support for older CPUs. This impedes users from running Kometa on affected hardware.
To address this issue, we have implemented 'lxml' variants for each Kometa branch (master, develop, and nightly). These variants resume compatibility with older hardware by freezing lxml on a previous version which has wider hardware support.

To transition to the lxml branch, simply prepend 'lxml-' to the branch name you are currently utilizing. For instance, `kometateam/kometa:lxml-master`, `kometateam/kometa:lxml-develop` and `kometateam/kometa:lxml-nightly`.

There are 8 other images listed at dockerhub aside from the official image and linuxserver. None of them discuss how they are different beyond one noting it includes `curl`.
