You can use actual docker-compose with podman, the -compose projects are separate from podman/docker.
podman-compose never worked well for me but docker-compose on podman did.

The CLI plugin or the script? Last time I checked the podman CLI did not support docker CLI plugins and the script is EOL since years.
Podman has supported plugin compose (v2) for years now, and I believe that's the version I used before I switched to Quadlets, but I must have not needed Buildkit features back then because those are apparently still unsupported over v2.

Don't know about that. I did a ddg search "using docker compose (v2) plugin with podman" I do get some tutorials but they all are from 2026. This also aligns with my experience from late 2024 where you where typical advised to use `podman compose` or the compose script.
Here's the 2022 release announcement for Podman 4.1 claiming support for compose v2. Your distro may have been stuck with an older Podman version for much longer though.
https://podman.io/release/2022/05/09/podman-release-v4.1.0
docker-compose (v1) is obsolete. The new version (v2) is a plugin for the docker CLI.
See my answer to your sibling comment. Podman supports v2 but not with Buildkit.
