No need to compromise. Docker/Podman support is alive and well—just not in utxo's / bitvora's repo. Here's my repo, where I’ve been actively maintaining and improving containerization support:

https://github.com/aaccioly-open-source/haven/

Aside from ironing out bugs, I’ve improved the image build process so that rebuilding Haven’s image now takes only a few seconds on my hardware. Additionally, the final image is much smaller than before—just a few dozen megabytes depending on the platform, compared to the previous 1GB+.

The current image version is also (hopefully) more secure, as it can be run in a rootless Podman environment. The compose file includes a pre-configured Nginx reverse proxy and automatic HTTPS certificate renewal, similar to the version I previously contributed upstream.

He has applied a very similar set of optimisations to his repo's Dockerfile as I’ve applied to mine, so whichever version you choose, you’ll be in good hands.
