Docker or Podman for Jellyfin? (lemmy.world)

I'm going to be running a Jellyfin server, and I don't want to maintain it a lot, I just want it to work. Would using Docker be the easier way to maintain Jellyfin, or would using Podman be better? (I don't want to deal with SELinux, firewalls, port forwarding, etc.)

They do effectively the same, but most software is build with docker in mind. podman should work but be prepared for some frustration using it.

docker nor podman fix your firewall or port for you by the way
