I only dislike Podman because some distributions used it as an alias for docker which made a lot of docker-compatible software to not work on that distribution unless some workarounds. I wouldnt normally blame the application for this but in this case they are both, application and distribution, from the same dev.

Agreed, the `podman` command is 95% drop-in compatible with the `docker` command, but those edge cases are annoying and I would rather just use the docker cli backed with podman running the containers.

  Podman has a docker frontend. On Fedora, it is packaged as podman-docker, I believe. I recently went through the pain of getting testcontainers working on Fedora 41 with Podman. After enabling the Podman socket and setting an environment variables, I was off to the races!
