I'm currently using a Synology as a docker server, but I'm looking at switching over to using podman instead. I'm hitting one snag though, it seems that any files that are created on a binded volume set the permissions to be a user/group ID inside the container unless the container app runs as root(which many do not).

This creates a bit of a problem as my user account doesn't have permissions to the files that are created. My hope was to use syncthing to sync all my docker's data across my various devices for both as a basic form of backup and to make it easier to shift my containers from one machine to another rapidly.

Am I missing a trick, or is my plan just dumb?
