  > In what way is it a replacement for docker?
Look at the man pages for `machinectl` (then `systemd-nspawn`, `systemd-vmspawn`, and if you want `systemd-portabled`). This is a replacement for docker.

These are container tools offered by systemd.

The problem is that the tooling for creating, importing, and managing images is not as good with systemd vs Podman/Docker. There's also no clear path to import images from the Docker ecosystem, at least as far as user experience goes. I know how to do it, but the number of extra steps involved always drives me back to Podman.

podman is supposedly a replacement for docker.
