Quadlet is a game changer
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/quadlet-podman
It is less user friendly but theoretically more powerful and secure
The learning curve can be steep but if you have ever worked with config files it isn't bad.
The worst part about quadlets, IMO, is that they don't use the same key words as podman run does. So turning a working podman container into a quadlet can be challenging.
Podlet is really useful in this area.
