There are use-cases that Podman can be used for that don’t involve Compose (yes, even with orchestration). Likewise there are a lot of features Podman and family have that Docker does not. Historically rootless is the big one; Docker sort of has that now but it’s still not daemon-less.

What problems did you have running Docker-compose with podman? I am running both on a server without any problem. Fedora-like distros have a package podman-docker that make docker-compose work without workarounds.
I really wanted to use it badly, but lacking an alternative to Docker Compose or compatibility with it in 2022 is unacceptable. Yes, there is technically a way you can orchestrate containers through configuration, and I don't remember what it was called, but I found it both difficult to use and learn. It's crazy to me that people wanted to develop an alternative to Docker... without a way to just configure and network containers with YAML or JSON.
