EDIT: For some context, I recently gave podman another go. I have a few services on my homelab server set up in docker containers, so I tried migrating to podman.
After the second major bug (open issue on github) I encountered looked like it would require completely dropping using compose files to work around, I gave up and went back to docker.
I like the idea of podman, but it’s just not stable. I’ll try again in a year or so.
As a bonus, docker’s CLI is significantly nicer.

Isn’t that only for docker desktop?
Yes. Rancher desktop exists, btw. Just an fyi.
Edit: An open source alternative to Docker Desktop. It has most of the same features. Occasionally I’ve run into something that doesn’t work, but for the most part it’s just peachy.

if you’re asking with regards to systemd orchestration, no. i love deploying containers as Ansible -> systemd -> podman.
No, they mean the license costs. I’m pretty sure, you only have to pay a fee for Docker Desktop…
my bad
