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.
Ngl after trying out Rootless Podman on my system (I was playing with Distrobox) I kinda wanna switch my whole Homelab to it, I’m just lazy, afraid the move to rootless with blow up everything and have zero fucking free time.
I am running my entire homelab from podman quadlets (systemd managed podman containers) and it’s honestly very dope. Podman gets a bad rap for being second tier to docker but they legit have a bunch of awesome features for Linux users specifically that make it way nicer. Using systemd for docker status can add some misdirection occasionally, but having the logs from containers directly in journalctl alongside the rest of my system logs is amazing
i plan to set up my stuff like that as well, just don’t find time :/
