As far as I know it can do so but not when running rootless, I also don't thing it's currently possible to be done rootless. You still can run podman as root

As far as I know it can do so but not when running rootless, I also don't thing it's currently possible to be done rootless. You still can run podman as root without damon. Or you can run a podman deamon (through systemd) which is even compatible with docker-compose but has most of the drawbacks of running docker.
