> Dockerfile
nitpick: Containerfile. I mention it because people still think container==docker. I am sure the Fedora people focus on podman, as part of the Red Hat ecosystem. For a better dev experience they offer podman-bootc¹, which you will miss when using Docker. Personally I am convinced that we should steer people to podman instead of Docker.

Red Hat obviously wants to change people's vocabulary but "Dockerfile" is basically an industry-standard generic term by this point.
That is true, the same for "to google" if people mean "to search". It does bury the generality of the concept though. Like I said, a nitpick.
I think it's also worth noting that the Dockerfile format is still driven by Docker, and there have been zero extensions to the format by Podman folks, so Containerfile==Dockerfile.
