Missing a comma: “Stop, use Docker.” But actually, use Podman.

Relatedly, a 2019 tweet from Solomon Hykes, the creator of Docker: https://x.com/solomonstre/status/1111004913222324225

If WASM+WASI existed in 2008, we wouldn't have needed to created Docker. That's how important it is. Webassembly on the server is the future of computing. A standardized system interface was the missing link. Let's hope WASI is up to the task!

I think WASM/WASI still has a ways to go before that’s realistic, but I’d keep an eye on them for the future.

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?

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.
