    I’ve been managing my containers using the older mechanism (systemd-generate) since I started and it’s great. You get the reliable service start of systemd and its management interface. Monitoring is consistent with all your other services and you have your logs in exactly one location.

    I really wouldn’t want a separate interface or service manager just because I’m running containers.

      Do you run other things on your system other than containers? I have a VM that only runs containers so it really doesn’t do anything else with systemd apart from the basics so I’m curious if there would be any advantage to me switching.
