This is an interesting find OP and could help people transition from Docker to Podman (especially if they're used to deploying with Docker-Compose).

I think the better long-term approach though is to use systemd user units for deployment, or the more modern approach of using Podman Quadlets. There's a bit of a learning curve, but these approaches are more native to the Podman platform, and learning how systemd services work is a great skill to have.
