I'm not sure if it was you that downvoted me, but you are mistaken.
boot2podman/machine, what you linked, is not an official part of podman. It is a third party equivalent and not relevant. The official podman repository is https://github.com/containers/podman https://github.com/containers/podman, and the machine bits are integrated and part of podman proper:
https://github.com/containers/podman/tree/main/cmd/podman/machine https://github.com/containers/podman/tree/main/cmd/podman/ma...
If it was you that downvoted my comment, please consider not doing that because you disagree. The comment was factually correct and made in good faith. You're equating a third party deprecated podman-machine with the integrated into upstream podman machine. We were not referring to the same thing whatsoever.
Hopefully this makes more sense to you now.
- capableweb 5y agoThanks for clarifying! My mistake in confusing the two, hopefully one can understand how another can make the mistake though as one is named "podman machine" and the other "podman machine". My main issue with your comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28391265 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28391265) still stands, you're linking a third-party source with the impression that that source said it's in fact not being deprecated, when there is no such text in that source. I did not downvote you, but I can absolutely understand why someone would do that, since the tweet seemingly has nothing to do with the comment your original comment was replying to. For what it's worth, complaining about downvotes is almost never worth it. Makes for boring reading and the people downvoting you won't read it anyways.
- _joel 5y agoIt's also in the documentation https://podman.io/getting-started/installation https://podman.io/getting-started/installation
- voxic11 5y agonext your going to be complaining that its too easy to confuse docker-compose with docker compose :P
- afbjorklund 5y agoI added some clarification (hopefully) to the README, it gets a bit confusing when terms like "Machine" and "CoreOS" get reused
- Aeolun 5y ago> since the tweet seemingly has nothing to do with the comment your original comment was replying to Saying the lead developer is recommending using machine right after someone claims it’s deprecated seems relevant?
- afbjorklund 5y agoThe comments were regarding two different projects, one is deprecated (old podman-machine) one is not (new podman machine)
- SEJeff 5y agoI'm saying the source is saying this is what to use, which was confirmed by reading the source and seeing the "deprecated" version was not even related to the project whatsoever. Dan is the guy that has been with the docker project through the redhat fork and to the creation of podman from the very beginning. If he says podman machine is what to use, it is not deprecated. Have you ever listened to Dan speak? He's very pragmatic about these things. Being one of the authoritative decision makers, if he says to use it, it is not deprecated. A literal 1 minute perusal of the podman upstream source confirmed.
