The main issue is podman support on Ubuntu. Ubuntu ships outdated podman versions that don't work out of the box. So I use podman v5, GitHub actions uses podman v3, and my coworkers on Ubuntu use docker. So now my script must work with old podman, recent podman and docker

Since Podman is open source, Ubuntu (and others) are able to package it and and update it themselves if they choose. But I think it's understandable that Red Hat would not want to pay their development teams to package their software for a direct competitor.
