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?

    But you don’t need to have systemd run anything (except docker or podman itself). Just run containers with “restart: always” and docker/podman will start them on boot, restart them of they fail, and leave them alone if they’re manually stopped.

    You only need to run compose when you are [re]provisioning a container.

      Podman does not start your containrs on boot. You need to do some magic yoursefel. Like a cronjob that starts all containers at boot.

        When you used the Podman systemd integration it starts containers on boot just fine. You can even configure it to auto-update containers. Very hassle free.
