On the Docker for Windows note, it's not podman but after I had trouble with their "forced upgrade unless enterprise" policy (which made me update to a broken version with a known issue they didn't solve for weeks) I switched to Rancher Desktop and never looked back.

You get all the things (docker CLI, docker-compose, kubernetes via k3s) but it's FOSS and it doesn't feel like they're trying to shove a premium plan down your throat.

Loving Rancher Desktop here too, and even w/o making use of k3s at all. Fantastic drop-in replacement for Docker Desktop w/o the garbage.
Interesting/Great that Rancher Desktop uses WSL - not having to launch a Linux VM (albeit transparent) is nice. I still wish MS would have come up with something native.
