Anyone using Podman on a macOS? How's the experience compared to Docker Desktop?
* podman with --network host won't expose the ports.
* If you suspend the laptop the time on the VM goes haywire.
I always found docker to be unreasonably buggy too so am not sure how I feel about this.

Recently switched back to Docker Desktop from Podman Desktop since Docker Desktop seems to integrate better with Windows. Good progress though and I'll revisit it again soon.
Even Docker Desktop for Mac works pretty great and they improved the startup. Not really had issues to warrant switching.
I think VirtioFS fixed most unbearable fs slowness.
But Rancher Desktop also got better and I just cannot understand why I would use Docker for Desktop instead of the Open Sourced Rancher Desktop.

Was interested to see if Podman is a shiny new technology or a likely replacement of docker?
It does has some quirks that is why I keep using docker for containers on servers. I do use podman daily in the form of distrobox since both the steam deck and my desktop are immutable systems.
As much as it pains me to say this, I think nixos might be my next path.
What problem does Docker's daemon actually solve? To me it always felt over-engineered.
I'm surprised to see RedHat thinking that programmers will prefer a desktop GUI interface to CLI for operations like starting containers. I thought that thinking had died out 20 years ago and that even Java and Windows people understood that it wasn't what programmers wanted.
Most of my colleagues don't know what a ssh public key is used for.
It doesn't work as a 100% replacement but I'd really like to switch. They need to work on better docker compose compatibility. Anything with custom network settings and it pukes.
My guess is Kubernetes would be the way to go here? You can run k3s locally.
And use Skaffold or Tilt to manage it all.
This setup makes Docker Compose look like a toy.
Developers should stop with this impedence mismatch of using Docker Compose when developing and K8s in prod.

Colima on the other hand works pretty much seamlessly, but really works best on macOS Ventura because you can enable vz virtualization.
Edited to add: colima works seamlessly on the command line. So if you're command-line-averse, you'll need to learn some new commands and things won't be as convenient. I haven't tried rancher desktop yet.
