I use podman-compose with system accounts and I don’t have a ton of issues. The biggest one is that I can’t seem to get bluetooth and pip working on Home Assistant at the same time. Most of the servers I manage have SELinux and it works fine as long as I use :z/:Z with bind mounts.
A few years ago, I set up a VPS for my friend’s business; at the time, I didn’t know how to work with SELinux so I just turned it off. I tried to flip it back on, and it somehow bricked the system. We had to restore from a backup. Since then, I’ve been afraid to enable it on my flagship homelab server.
are you sure it really bricked it? when turning it on, on next boot it needs to go over all the files and retag them or something like that, and it can take a significant amount of time
Honestly, I don’t know what happened, but it was unreachable via SSH and the web console. There shouldn’t have been a ton of files to tag since it was an Almalinux system that started with SELinux enabled, and all we added was a container app or two.
