I tried to install docker on rocky Linux today, and it installed podman instead.
I would be using podman full time if it had proper support for docker-compose in daemonless and rootless mode
https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/podman-docker-compose says root is required but https://brandonrozek.com/blog/rootless-docker-compose-podman/ (a year later) says it isn’t
I have seen both of these articles but failed to get to satisfactorily work on Void Linux which is mostly my fault than anyone else’s. The socket file was not user readable. Instead of spending time finding a fix I just use docker in its stead.
On my work computer I have to run Docker Desktop on the Windows side to provide the docker backend used within the WSL2 install.
It appears Podman Desktop uses WSL, but it doesn’t have WSL integration yet, so I am stuck with Docker Desktop on that for now.
