Podman: A Daemonless Container Engine
It is absolutely not correct that Larsson did the lion’s share. What he did was implement a Go wrapper for libdevmapper, which exposes a very low-level API. It is the Docker team that implemented devmapper-based container storage, as well as the whole storage plugin system which was now required to support more than one storage method. The original devmapper lib is utterly undocumented and Larsson’s wrapper did not fix that. So getting that feature to work was an all-consuming task and it is the Docker team that did the bulk of it.
You can see all this from the early history of the devmapper directory: https://github.com/alexlarsson/docker/commits/a14496ce891f1f...

How I ended up using Colima for Docker on Apple Silicon
A lot of well-known Docker alternatives emerged at this point, the most commonly recommended of which must be Podman (along with Podman Desktop). This is what I use on my Windows machines, and this was the first solution that I tried on the Macbook as well.

A Gentle Introduction to Containerization and Docker
Even though we will focus on Docker for this article, I wanted to mention that there are more container creation and management tools such as Podman, Rkt, and so on.

A Journey to Find an Ultimate Development Environment
By using containerization, the application will always have the same configuration that is used in the development environment and production environment. There is no more "It works on my machine". Some examples of containerization technologies are Docker and Podman.

Podman Desktop 1.6 released: Even more Kubernetes and Containers features
Podman as a devcontainers engine doesn't currently work if you use devcontainer features [1] or (and this sounds like you're issue) if you use WSL2.
I haven't submitted the WSL2 issue to the Podman team yet. If you get to it before I do, can you like it here?

Oracle data base
You can also use their Oracle Linux Docker images with the database preinstalled using either Podman or Docker. Just make absolutely sure you are downloading something you are licensed to use, because it seems really easy to accidentally infringe copyright via this method.
