I’m moving to a new machine soon and want to re-evaluate some security practices while I’m doing it. My current server is debian with all apps containerized in docker with root. I’d like to harden some stuff, especially vaultwarden but I’m concerned about transitioning to podman while using complex docker setups like nextcloud-aio. Do you have experience hardening your containers by switching? Is it worth it? How long is a piece of string?

Podman

rootless by default
daemonless
integration with systemd, made even easier by podman-generate-systemd
no third-party APT repository required, follows the same lifecycle as my LTS (Debian) distro
podman and docker command-line are 100% compatible for my use cases

podman-generate-systemd is outdated.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.
