I've struggled with podman, esp when following tutorials for docker when podman doesn't quite replicate. Is it worth persisting?

Yes, it's definitely worth persisting, especially if you use K8s. Podman can import/export Pod objects with the same API as K8s, so it makes it trivial to run the same k8s yaml locally and in a deployed environment.

Running a light weight Kubernetes setup like k3s locally is a better solution for that use case, imo.

k3s is something I've heard about but know very little. Does it use a VM? I tried skimming their website but couldn't parse that out.

No VM, it is just a light weight distribution of Kubernetes that can be effortlessly installed and run on Linux.

I personally feel that any pain you might face with podman is worth it just for the ability to treat container applications just like any other application on your system
