I am still on an x86 Mac.
When Docker Desktop changed licensing I tried to switch to Podman and it was a disaster, Podman was brand new and despite many blog posts that claimed it was the perfect replacement it did not work for me, and I have very simple requirements. So I ended up using Rancher Desktop instead, which was also very unstable but better.
Fast forward 1 year, Rancher was pretty good and Podman still did not work reliably on my mac.
Fast forward another year or so and I switched to colima.
I tried podman last time about one year ago and I still had issues on my old mac. So far colima has been good enough for my needs although at least two times a brew update broke colima and I had to reinstall from scratch.

- giamma 1y agoThanks, I did not know OrbStack, will give it a try.
- xtracto 1y agoThis mirror my experience. Ive been testing podman over the few years since Docker changed its license. But every time there's some thing that just doesnt work. So i find myself always returning to docker
