Hey, sorry for the late reply. I am running rootless using a dedicated user, so I use systemctl --user to control the container. From what I understand, when running rootless the root user inside the container correlates to the outside user (which is running the container), in terms of permissions. The external directories I bind mount into the container as externally owned by my dedicated user, so that the root user inside the container owns them (inside the container).

Are you doing rootless or rootfull podman? I am doing rootless and I have the following in my radarr container - PUID=0 PGID=0
