It's Sunday somewhere already so why wait?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

I'll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn't want to forget the post again.

how are you trying to run podman?

If you just want a similar setup as with docker I'll recommend this:

https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/rootless_tutorial.md


Lingering (running services without login / after logout)

https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/12001

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/462845/how-to-apply-lingering-immedeately#462867

sudo loginctl enable-linger <user>

https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/vendor/github.com/containers/storage/storage.conf

Check out the storage.conf to use the fuse-overlay driver.


I like podman-compose and i have a start up script that restarts all my containers at reboot, as my user.


Also use the full link to your images, like docker.io/image oder where ever you get your images from.


have fun :)

I ended up just adapting my composes to run commands, on my desktop I don't mind having to manually start them at boot, I could easily make a simple thing to just run at boot and just say podman run <container> as most of my containers depend on others so I can just start the child-most container and it'll start them all. I just have some shenanigans where I use one container as a VPN for the other ones, which is a bit messy if using rootless. I'll have a look into the links and see if there's anything new in there I haven't seen before but yeah, nothing unsolveable I'm just needlessly putting things off lol
