#podman is not a drop-in replacement for #docker because it fails to keep pace with changes.
The average compose YAML has syntax podman-compose doesn't support. #redhat and contributors keep podman limping along but it's about time I move to systemd (or k8s) spec and stop fooling around with podman or compose at all.
I haven't been able to start #Nextcloud with #Collabora for months because of some random length limit issue related to seccomp.
@andrew I keep trying to move to Podman and it keeps sending me back to Docker. It's like a bad relationship where the other person is technically better for you but can't remember your birthday.
One day we'll all be rootless and free. Today is not that day.
@deepjoy I don’t mind a few extra steps for rootless, if they’re equivalent in that regard, but I would miss the ability to import & export volumes with one command. Maybe I’ll have AI give me a quick reference of differences in features and syntax. I’m sure I could get used to it.
But then I think about how I’ve been wanting to move to k8s anyway … and about how I already use quadlets for some things but not others.
Thank you for giving me permission to give up on podman though 🥹
