Docker has nice image caching and fetching. It’s all about deploying and containerising in one step, usually a one line shell script alongside the container config.
LXC is more like deploying disposable OS instances and then having to deploy your app yourself, separately. It’s more bare metal but has fewer surprises in terms of supporting IPv6 and not having any inscrutable iptables magic happening on the host OS.
Docker is IKEA. LXC is hiring a joiner. (Not a value judgement.)
