Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Podman Desktop: A Free OSS Alternative to Docker Desktop
You are probably referring to Sysbox (https://github.com/nestybox/sysbox), which I believe will meet your requirements (systemd, inner containers, security, etc).
Btw, Sysbox is already supported in Docker-Desktop (business tier only), so you can easily do what you want with this instruction:
$ docker run -it --rm -e SYSBOX_SYSCONT_MODE=TRUE nestybox/ubuntu-focal-systemd-docker:latest bash
Disclaimer: I'm Sysbox's co-creator and currently working for Docker.

SELinux is unmanageable; just turn it off if it gets in your way
One project in this space that looked quite promising to me is sysbox[0]. I've used them once for a gitlab runner set-up similar to what is described in their blog[1].
It's currently working great and I have not had any major crashes/incidents for at least the past 8 months.

Jenkins in Docker: Running Docker in a Jenkins container
Today, things are very different. Docker-in-Docker has a more secure and safe approach with rootless containers and freemium tools like sysbox. Tools like sysbox let you run Docker-in-Docker without the -privileged flag and optimizes specific scenarios, like running multiple nodes of a Kubernetes cluster as ordinary containers.

Run untrusted code in sandbox
Right now I am going with sysbox rootless containers. https://github.com/nestybox/sysbox

Real-world stories of how we’ve compromised CI/CD pipelines
We’ve been using Sysbox (https://github.com/nestybox/sysbox) for our Buildkite based CI/CD setup, allows docker-in-docker without privileged containers. Paired with careful IAM/STS design we’ve ended up with isolated job containers with their own IAM roles limited to least-privilege.

Individual Docker Desktops vs hosting on a server?
A good alternative to the VM approach is to use Kubernetes + Sysbox (a next-gen "runc", free, open-source).
- Sysbox now works on K8s v1.21

Does running a container with privileged mode turn on allow code to escape into the Host ?
But nowadays there is an option to run such software in containers securely. It's called Sysbox, and it's a new "runc" (the piece of software that creates the containers). I am one of the developers, so I am biased, but I think you'll find it helpful.

Kubewarden - Kubewarden is a policy engine for Kubernetes. It helps with keeping your Kubernetes clusters secure and compliant. Kubewarden policies can be written using regular programming languages or Domain Specific Languages (DSL) sugh as Rego. Policies are compiled into WebAssembly modules that are then distributed using traditional container registries.
