> Naively, I'd say to create symlinks instead of copying,

I did mean symlinks too. The rest of my system shouldn't have to know or care about my project at all.

I just wanna be able to systemctl --user start ./my-service.service or something to that effect.

Can you not? I know that systemctl has a userspace dot folder for user's services.

[0] `~/.config/systemd/user/`


The quadlet user folder is typically at `~/.config/containers/systemd`. So if you put your .container files in there, you can start them with `systemctl start --user MyContainer`

and that's why it's a non-starter for dev stuff (to me). I'll stick with docker-compose (although with podman)
