On my personal computer and projects I always use Podman. There is even a fancy web app if people desperately want a cool icon on their menu bar, though it pales in comparison to Docker Desktop in features. (For instance, it's not able to search for images, whereas Docker Desktop can).

I do not miss Docker at all considering that I can copy paste almost every docker invocation I see online and have it run flawlessly with Podman. Unfortunately my workplace will probably never even consider trying out Podman as a replacement to Docker. I wonder if someone here has a nice anecdote of using Podman successfully at their workplace.



We are now on the Podman train. We used Docker for a while on some parts of our services. We did a thorough comparison of Podman and Docker when it was time to move over all the rest of our legacy-deployed services. Podman won out on many technical, subjective, and future-looking topics. Feels good, everybody is on board here.


Big ask but I'm sure that would make a fantastic blog post...


Since you seem to miss the GUI, have you tried Podman desktop?
