What's the status on ease of running on Mac? I know last time I seriously considered testing it out in my workflow, it was kind of crazy that I had to have a separate machine (VM or real) just to run container images...
I see in the docs [1]:
"Podman is a tool for running Linux containers. You can do this from a MacOS desktop as long as you have access to a linux box either running inside of a VM on the host, or available via the network. You need to install the remote client and then setup ssh connection information."
And yes, I know that Docker (and any other Linux container-based tool) also runs a VM—but it sets it up almost 100% transparently for me. I install docker, I run `docker run` and I have a container running.
