I don't really have anyone else to shout at about this, but it's an amazing way to host services in rootless containers entirely in user space using systemd (systemctl --user).

I'm now running quadlets on Garuda (my gaming/devbox), and Fedora. The impetus for this was needing to host service in an unprivileged way at work on RHEL9, so I got paid to do some learning with my own services.

My laptop is running Bazzite, but no services there. I'll move the server to silverblue or another image based distro when I finish extracting the rest of my misadventures to containers.
