Podman and Buildah for Docker Users
They claim &quot;Podman provides a Docker-compatible command line front end and one can simply alias the Docker cli, `alias docker=podman`&quot;.    
That claim alone shows they dont know or dont care how people use container engines outside the k8s space.    
I know a lot of orgs that simply use docker-compose files to spin up simple setups. There is podman-compose[1] but its &quot;still underdevelopment&quot;.<p>Then there is software using the docker socket.<p>Portainer? No Podman support [2]<p>Testcontainers? No Podman support [3]<p>Traefik? No Service discovery for you [4]<p>Should i go on?<p>yeah its rootless and i like the idea podman and buildah represent.   
What i dont like is the way they break at least part of the ecosystem.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;containers&#x2F;podman-compose" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;containers&#x2F;podman-compose</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;portainer&#x2F;portainer&#x2F;issues&#x2F;2991" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;portainer&#x2F;portainer&#x2F;issues&#x2F;2991</a><p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.testcontainers.org&#x2F;supported_docker_environment&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.testcontainers.org&#x2F;supported_docker_environment&#x2F;</a><p>[4] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;containous&#x2F;traefik&#x2F;issues&#x2F;5730" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;containous&#x2F;traefik&#x2F;issues&#x2F;5730</a>
