With recent advances in both systemd and podman a lot of this is basically a non-issue.

Documentation has also gotten better.

For tools that require docker to work, like testcontainers and tilt, I've found some annoyances using podman, but ultimately I've been able to work around them.

For everything else, it's pretty much a drop in replacement.

They should better manage expectations. They put rootless as a forefront before it was ready and still no proper support for Ubuntu on v4 of Podman.
