Nope, I just tested and the rootful podman service doesn’t touch any iptables/firewall rules.
It uses what is called a “CNI”, container network interface, to manage container networking rather than just overwriting all the iptables rules like docker does.
Sounds like you were using Docker Desktop on Windows maybe? It’s… pretty meh. But Docker on Linux is phenomenal. Docker on Windows is mostly just a way to make it accessible to developers stuck on Windows.
What makes you dislike docker?
At least from a development perspecrive, it’s really convenient, especially when paired with a CICD system and container registry.
I tried it once and it rewrote all my firewall rules without telling me
Yeah that’s a gripe of mine. Thankfully podman doesn’t do that.
Docker also sometimes breaks lxd and libvirt networking by changing the default forward policy from accept to drop.
I think podman by default does do that, but it’s easy to disable almost all of it, at least.

Damn.
Yeah, that would make me dislike it too.
