Transitioning from Docker to Podman

Openshift years ago at least (last time I looked) - SHUDDER! I couldn't believe it was what big business / enterprise was standardizing on as best in class. It looks like it's now Kube / Docker connected, but back then I think it did it's own thing?

The cost in time / $ / config to maintain and operate at the time was not pretty (all this no doubt has changed a lot).

They gave you three pods for free until they moved to Openshift 3. I ran an entire startup five years using them without paying a single penny. A nice Heroku alternative. (Iot control server, so basically no load)

Openshift was very generous to startups, I can back that up as well.

It always seemed like added complexity to me in exchange for free hosting. I liked the idea in concept more than in practice. But we also weren't big enough to really justify it so eventually we switched to simpler VPS hosting.

Same, I ran some stuff for free until the switched the mandatory pay plan, then moved to cheap vps
