Is it time to switch to podman? (lemmy.ml)

I keep reading about podman, yet it doesm't FEEL as mature to me as docker for a normal user like me. What's your opinion? Did you already switch or do you keep waiting for ... for what? When will you switch?

I only tried running rootless when i set them up several years ago and i was completely green, so it was probably me who was the problem.

Regarding podman-compose, Fedora repos has a a package that aliases podman -> docker and the regular docker-compose package, which i used before migrating to podman+systemd. It worked flawlessly unless i did networking shenanigans because Podman and Docker differs (/differed?) in so some thing simply couldn't be brought over.

Edit: i found the docker-compose and Podman alias thingies in a Fedora Magazine post.

However, unless you use docker-compose a lot for other stuff, learning to use Podmans systemd integration (also called quadlet) is very much worth it. They're just a really powerful combo and systemd has a ton of nice features for making stuff run and keep running.
