I tried to get this setup myself awhile ago, but this part is a deal breaker for me:

A volume mounting /var/run/docker.sock from the host into the container so containers can be spawned for running workflows

Does anyone know of a way to get this setup without giving basically full root access to my system? Ideally with rootless podman containers. I can't actually remember what the issue was exactly when I was trying to do that.

The Forgejo documentation says that you can run it as a non-root user via Podman, but I didn't try it myself yet.
