I keep reading about podman, yet it doesm’t FEEL as mature to me as docker for a normal user like me. What’s your opinion? Did you already switch or do you keep waiting for … for what? When will you switch?

I fully admit I’m slow sometimes. I could never understand the podman solution for that common scenario when podman runs as one user ID on the host and the image uses a completely different user ID that doesn’t even exist on the host. And no, unfortunately I can’t always go look for a better image, even though I agree that images should be written to allow for ID selection. But they aren’t.
