From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How good is podman compose? I remember it had too many bugs for me to replace docker. 🤔

[–] Narwhalrus@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In my experience podman compose is not a sufficient replacement.

Docker compose can be used with podman via the podman socket daemon. It's very easy to get working. Give it a try.

It improved a lot and has a new maintainer, your problems might be solved by now.

I'll have to give it another try.

I should clarify that the issues I had were podman compose being able to run unaltered compose files that worked with docker compose, many of which were fairly complicated. It may have been adequate for simpler use cases back when I tried it.
