    As someone who has used and loved Docker since 2015, but never used Podman, can you explain the difference and why I might want to make the switch?

      If you want to lose most of your tooling and community support, Podman is a great way to go.

      From a practical standpoint I’m really not qualified recommend one over the other, but the licensing is different. Podman also seems to be more “open source-y,” but I’m going on vibes here; perhaps someone more knowledgeable can elucidate.
