I’m running podman and podman-compose with no problem. And I’m happy. At first I was confused by the uid and gid mapping the containers have, but you’ll get used to it.

This are some notes I took, please don’t take all of it for the right choice.

Podman-Stuff

storage.conf

To use the fuse-overlay driver, the storage must be configured:

.config/containers/storage.conf

[storage]
  driver = "overlay"
  runroot = "/run/user/1000"
  graphroot = "/home/<user>/.local/share/containers/storage"
  [storage.options]
    mount_program = "/usr/bin/fuse-overlayfs"
