Docker works. Podman requires a ton of workarounds and wastes my time. I hope it gets good one day, but I'm not reverting to using systemd to manage containers.

You sound like you work at us-east-1

I know this is a joke. But the reason I cannot have podman is because the tooling for us-east-1 will simply not work with podman (on my pc).
