i call it “butter FS”

This looks like a pretty fun show. I’m adding it to my plan to watch list. Thanks.

Yeah quadlets are pretty cool. I have them organized into folders for each pod. podman auto-update is also another pretty nice feature. I don’t use the systemd timer for auto-update. Instead I just do podman auto-update --dry-run to check for updates and update my quadlet files and configs if any changes are required then I run the updates with podman auto-update.

podman-generate-systemd is outdated. The currently supported way to run podman containers using systemd services would be Quadlet files.

Edit: I just saw that you use debian so idk if Quadlets are a thing with the podman version on debian.

Any reason why you use compose and not quadlets?

Do you mean networking between them? There’s two ways of networking between containers. One of them is to create a custom network for a set of containers that you want to connect between each other. Then you can access other containers in that network using their name and port number like so

container_name:1234

Note: DNS is disabled in the default network by default so you can’t access other containers by their name if using it. You need to create a new network for it to work.

Another way is to group them together with a pod. Then you can access other services in that same pod using localhost like so

localhost:1234

Personally in my current setup I’m using both pods and seperate networks for each of them. The reason is I use traefik and I don’t want all of my containers in a single network along with traefik. So I just made a seperate network for each of my pods and give traefik access to that network. As an example here’s my komga setup:

I have komga and komf running in a single pod with a network called komga assigned to the pod. So now I can communicate between komga and komf using localhost. I also added traefik to the komga network so that I can reverse proxy my komga instance.

NewPipe on my phone. I don’t have PC I can use rn but when I used to have one I’d just use my browser (mainly Firefox) with ublock origin to watch YouTube (without signing in).
