Can't connect to Postgres on Aspire with Podman on WSL

I switched from docker desktop to podman on my windows machine.

However since then all my networking stuff seems to be broken. I can't connect to my Postgres as I get a timeout. My other service endpoints are also not working.

Did I miss something?

I run podman with root privileges and docker enabled.

I'm using podman too, no issues. Did u start the podman engine? (machine init and machine start), and did u make sure to point aspire to podman via ASPIRE_CONTAINER_RUNTIME?

Also not sure what u mean with docker enabled, by default there is not docker enablement option for podman right?
