Agreed.

I've recently switched from docker compose to process compose and it's super nice not to have to map ports or mount volumes. What I actually needed from docker had to do less with containers and more with images, and nix solves that problem better without getting in the way at runtime.

Assuming I've found the right process-compose [1], it struck me as having much overlap with the features of systemd. Or at least, I would tend to reach for systemd if I wanted something to run arbitrary processes. Is there something additional/better that process-compose does for you?
