Heavy compose user here, and when I tried the podman equivalent of compose was missing some functionality that made me move back.

I had the same experience, and I'm not really sure why I can't use docker-compose with podman. If it's a drop in replacement, why can't I alias podman as docker and use docker-compose like normal?

I did try that and it doesn't work, and podman compose isn't as useable. So I switched back to docker.

Podman is (mostly) a drop-in replacement for docker. However, docker-compose is a separate package from docker that requires explicit installation. So too is podman-compose separate from podman, though unfortunately it still needs more work.
