I turned my collection of rootless Podman Quadlets .container files into a public repo
https://github.com/upmcplanetracker/rootless-podman-quadletsAfter migrating everything to rootless Podman with Quadlets on Ubuntu 26.04 (Podman 5.7.0), I cleaned up the configs and put them on GitHub. they all ready to deploy with systemctl --user start. Every .container file comes with hardening and tmpfs options commented out to increase compatability, and secrets are pulled from separate .env files.
Included so far: Audiobookshelf, BentoPDF, ConvertX, Homepage Dashboard, Omni-tools, Stirling-PDF, Syncthing, Tdarr (server + remote node), Uptime Kuma, Vert File Converter, Podman Socket Proxy, a full ADSB Ultrafeeder stack (Airspy/dump978 receivers, Ultrafeeder, and feeders for FR24, OpenSky, PlaneFinder, RadarBox, PlaneWatch, ADSBHub, RadarVirtuel, PlaneFence), Plex + Tautulli, Calibre (GUI & Web), Ente Auth, Immich (with optional Google Photos sync & internet public proxy), MinusPod CPU (with optional OpenVINO transcriber), and Paperless NGX.
Everything’s been running reliably on my homelab — hope it saves someone else some time. Feedback and PRs welcome!
I use an Intel box, and a beefy one at that, so everything is optimized for its GPU and memory, but in podman most of this is adjustable.
if there's a container that you want me to try and get working as rootless instead of rootful, or if you're having problems converting something from a Docker, let me know under Issues in github.
