Summary
Podman v6.0.0 modernizes networking by deprecating slirp4netns and iptables in favor of Netavark, Pasta, and nftables, with experimental Pesto rootless port forwarding preserving source IP. Podman machine gains multi-provider support and an os update command, while Quadlets now include REST API, .volume units, and additional search paths. Configuration file changes improve multi-user administration, and Docker API compatibility continues to advance.
