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.


There’s
podman-composeavailable through your package manager or pypi.That’s one thing - installing and trying out Podman compose takes less time than remembering where to get Docker compose from.
I always at least try it first, because it’s not expensive to try.
