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.
The GUI is not technically “Docker”. It’s made by Docker the company but it doesn’t use the same runtime engine, because it’s meant for non-Linux OS which don’t have it. It uses whatever the host OS has in place as an alternative.
