y'all use containers still? I run my site with native installed software configured by hand like a TRUE sysadmin!

Podman is unironically the better choice. Just try to make docker comply with your firewall...
Docker bypasses your firewall and runs as root. Only an idiot would allow that shit.... I'm an idiot. But I'm fixing that.

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 itβs 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 :/
Is that a dugtrio?
Alternate universe with Digong and Seetrio.
i genuinely run all my shit bare metal

This is why I don't like Docker compared to Podman:
I may be dumb but I apply the firewall at the router level (OPNsense). That should be fine, right?
Security should be layered. Ideally both network & server-based firewalls should be enabled.
I literally yesterday dealt with that. Thereβs an option to just turn off Dockerβs firewall manipulation so you can do it manually.

I'm curious why you feel this way? I'm kinda the opposite β podman has features I use that Docker doesn't.

Docker became a license nest despite actual devs using k8s like a normal person should.
Meanwhile podman gave us rootless containers, CDI, and quadlets which far outweighs whatever docker is limping to the barn with.

I choose Podman bc it's open source and that's kind of the reason for using everything as a container bc those are often also open source. Fuck docker
What exactly is your problem with Docker? It's open source.
Also closed-source container images exist.
Haha idk, nothing really. Just found a lot of recommendations over Docker for podman.
