Rust or C would be lower level languages that integrate well with Python. Or, could go into something weird like Erlang or Elixir.

Accurate.

Podman is just as easy to install–admittedly they give way more support for Ubuntu and Fedora than other platforms (unfortunately). But once you’ve switched, you won’t go back; it really is a ‘seemless’ transition, and you can use the same dockerfiles and docker-compose files with it.

Podman is great and now is compatible with the docker engine. Having rootless containers by default is awesome! There’s also a utility called podman-compose that I also highly recommend.
