Quadlet is such a nice tool. I never liked docker as a process supervisor because it was way inferior to systemd, which is why I was leaning towards podman anyway. Quadlet finally provides a sensible declarative configuration alternative to docker-compose, which integrates so well with systemd. Combined with Ansible, Quadlet is a nice alternative to NixOS. Can't wait for the latest version with support for .pod files to land in Alma's repos.

For those interested in an example, slrpnk.net apparently uses quadlet for its deployment, see here.
