I use docker since it’s what I learned on a decade ago, and my nas that I started from supports docker bit not podman in the ‘app store’. I have three other machines running plain Debian, but I would want everything to work together, y’know? I’ve got a set-and-forget setup and I’d rather not break things without substantial benefit…
Plus everybody is like ‘it’s the same thing, no learning curve’ but then I start reading up on it and uhoh, learning curves :p

Exactly this. I tried podman, as a “container” newb, based on the idea that it’s a (better) drop-in replacement for docker, but it didn’t work. My quick attempts to resolve it went nowhere, and there were no instructions for the container I was trying to spin up for podman to explain the differences required.
So, in frustration, I decided to try docker and it just worked.
Good enough for me, for now. I still prefer the idea of not having a daemon running with root privileges, so I’ll likely move over to podman eventually, but I only have so much time to waste tinkering with my setup. And if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

same, docker just works when I’m trying to use version pinning on half my containers so they don’t try using the wrong rocm version
