>I suspect there's not really a point in responding to this since you've already made up your mind.

I suspect you ignored the point because you didnt want to address the point.

My repeating it seems to only have highlighted your wish to continue avoiding it here.

>Nevertheless, yes I am aware the systemd project contains many modular components.

Another red herring. "Modular" really isnt the point here.

It's certainly one way to justify throwing even more shit in an already overloaded kitchen sink though.

>You skipped the second part of my sentence where I reminded you that Podman is daemonless.

No, you skipped the part where I acknowledged that it was daemonless-by-default but you actually DO need to run a podman daemon if you're using docker compose with podman.

>Take this up with docker?

They're not responsible for podman trying to piggyback on their tools.
