I’m more into built-in nixos containers for personal use, and fall back to podman only if smth I want isn’t already packaged, and I’m too lazy to do it myself at the moment. Although, this is pretty usecase-specific, I guess: in mine the benefits mostly come from a wrapper I have around them that automates routine stuff like configuring networking, putting them on my tailnet, giving 'em hostnames indide LAN indide via caddy in case sb not on my tailnet happens to visit, collecting logs and so on. Also, there used to be an option to automate explosion yo the web via funnel, but that kinda doesn’t work with headscale, afaik
