Reasons to Drop Docker for Podman
I wanted to try a while ago so I downloaded Podman Desktop, but I couldn't get past the initial setup due to issues in the desktop app. I was able to reproduce this on two or three Macs, can't recall exactly.
It has been a long-standing issue but seems as though it is on its way to resolution: https://github.com/containers/podman-desktop/issues/1633.
I am waiting for a few months to make sure it is all sorted and will try again to see if it works then.

Podman Desktop 1.2 Released: Compose and Kubernetes Support
I'm not happy with Podman Desktop's Svelte GUI.
Antd or MUI (React) feel much more mature.
But they are working on it.

LXD is now under Canonical
I don't know if that's really a core difference from podman. Assuming I track your meaning Podman has GUI management as well and it can be made to integrate with system and can produce Kubernetes manifests from the pods you define locally.
