And that issue shows the problem with OSS.

Nothing is ever good enough.

And the reply:

This is why OSS maintainers have burn out. Always wanting more and more. Not even the source code is good enough.

My point is that it's not good enough to compete in this space.

Look at the distros that Docker supports. That kind of support is what users expect. When Podman just leaves it up to the distros to support, it's understandable. But, yes, it's not enough.

Then they should also expect enshittification and rug-pulls when it's realised where motivation for that support comes from.
