Monitoring and visibility of rootless containers running by different users on single server
Hey, I have homelab NUC server where I run different services as rootless podman pods and containers running by dedicated users, eg. nextcloud pod running by nextcloud user, gitea by gitea, znc by znc and more. Next step was trying to monitor these services. First trey was using cockpit-podman feature, but in UI I see only containers of my user and rootfull which both was empty. I cannot switch to another user because the're not capable for login to cockpit. Now I'm testing prometheus and podman-exporter which seems ok, but again I see containers only if I run prometheus-podman-exporter service as user who run another podman container (e.g. as nextcloud user). Of course I can run this service parallel as dedicated user with another port and add them as target to prometheus scrape config but from obvious reason I want to avoid that. Is it more gentle way to monitor my pods? I know that those namespaces are one of the main feature of Podman but I don't consider this before my deploys :)

Podman: A tool for managing OCI containers and pods
Tested podman to replace docker (the cli) on a mac yesterday Most of it works fine. They have an easy way to setup a vm now with `podman machine`: https://podman.io/getting-started/installation#macos
If you want the management GUI, install cockpit: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-podman
Try podman, you'll be impressed.

Battery consumption of using remote development with WSL2?
Btw #2: For a nice, cross-platform GUI app thing for Docker & Podman here's this one: Podman Desktop Companion.

A long-time Windows power user and game developer is looking for a switch to Linux.

About to upgrade my wfh machine. Is moving WSL2 environment as simple as export from old > import on new? Also considering move to docker.
Docker in WSL2 too works but with Podman the environment setup may be a little more flexible depending on what you want to achieve on what distro etc. In any case you can use the cross-platform Podman Desktop Companion app to manage your containers via a GUI.

Should I be creating a WSL "install" for each project?
Both Distrobox and Podman can be installed without root access btw and, here's a neat little GUI for managing Podman & Docker containers: Podman Desktop Companion (cross-platform).

FYI: Docker is deleting Open Source organisations
No, that's incorrect. Also, there's the unofficial Pods app, and the Podman Desktop Companion.

Windows Docker keeps crashing while running containers
For a GUI to manage your Podman and/or Docker containers, install the Podman Desktop Companion app (yes, it supports both Podman and Docker). They say that the Windows version can be used to manage the containers running in WSL2 but a more sure way would be to pick the Linux app and to install it in the WSL2 distro your containers are installed & running in.

Docker 2.0 went from $11M to $135M in 2 years
I'm skeptic how long this will last unless they bring out some cutting-edge innovations. I frankly used and loved Docker Desktop for a long time because it was the easiest way to get going and I believe even k8s is included now which is great for hobbyists and those who just want to get things done. But, I've been annoyed by the UX changes and the push to login to docker hub.
While in 2023, there are most certainly great alternatives that are relatively easy to install from the terminal and get going, I guess there's not yet a definitive replacement that comes with the GUI too. Best I can think of is Podman Desktop Companion[1] but not sure how well this works.
