Help with Rootless Podman and remote volume mounts (feddit.nl)

I'm trying to switch my existing Docker setup to a rootless podman one. The main issue tripping me is how to mount remote volumes. My file server is a different machine, so I mount the data into docker containers via a NFS volume. However, I can't do this with podman since the normal user doesn't have the rights for mounting NFS drives. Only the root user can do that.

One option I've thought of is to mount everything I need via fstab and use bind mounts. Is there a better solution?

I use fstab, seems cleaner instead of relying on podman. Otherwise can you give the podman user permissions to mount volumes?
