Every time I use podman (thelemmy.club)

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.

At work, avoiding surprise licensing fees. If you ever have over 250 employees or over 10 million revenue, you owe a subscription.

At the home, easy orchestration with systemd

    Isn't that only for docker desktop?

    Yes. Rancher desktop exists, btw. Just an fyi.

    Edit: An open source alternative to Docker Desktop. It has most of the same features. Occasionally I've run into something that doesn't work, but for the most part it's just peachy.

    It is! If you want to reduce exposure to this you really have to make sure mdm disallows installing it. The numbers trigger regardless of seats, and then you’re on the hook for the licenses for every employee using it.

    So even if as a matter of policy you don’t use docker desktop, it’s possible engineers still do.

    if you’re asking with regards to systemd orchestration, no. i love deploying containers as Ansible -> systemd -> podman.
