I hope more open source projects support it.

Most repos I check out still have only docker specific commands…

Even though most things are similar, the differences in e.g networking (for example host.docker.internal vs host.containers.internal) create lots of Issues for me



You may be able to symlink podman to /usr/bin/docker and things should "Just Work"


I got my simple docker files working with podman but my more advanced ones didn't. This was about 8 months ago. After running podman for about 2-3 weeks on my dev machine, I went back to docker.


I had the same experience. Even though I tried really hard and gave it a few months, I went back to Docker. I'm keeping an eye on Podman, though, and hope they can pull through to replace Docker soon.


That was the smartest decision they made other than the product itself
