- mdaniel 2y agoI don't want to dissuade you from Podman Desktop, because Podman is awesome in its own way, but I do hear you about the "uncanny valley" part. I wanted to offer that you don't have to jump all the way to podman (and Podman Desktop) just to escape the Docker Desktop licensing problem. There are a lot of alternatives which a whole spectrum of "I am CLI savvy or not" interaction experiences - Rancher Desktop is A++ and carries a friendly license https://rancherdesktop.io/ https://rancherdesktop.io/ -> https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/blob/v1.18.2/LICENSE https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/blob/v1.1... - colima (and the lima it wraps) -> https://github.com/abiosoft/colima#readme https://github.com/abiosoft/colima#readme - there's one from AWS called Finch <https://github.com/runfinch/finch https://github.com/runfinch/finch> that some of my colleagues like better than colima; YMMV <https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/introducing-finch-an-open-source-client-for-container-development/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/introducing-finch-an...>

- chuckadams 2y agoIf you’re on a Mac, I highly recommend OrbStack. Perfect Docker compatibility so far, actually better Rosetta support than Docker itself.
