#DDEV v1.25.0 has experimental Podman Rootless and Docker Rootless support, especially aimed at Linux users. It's niche, but Stas worked for a year to get us there, using Docker APIs more carefully and completely cleaning out our stack. Huge benefit for the entire project, not just Podman users. https://ddev.com/blog/podman-and-docker-rootless

Here's an overview of what's in #DDEV major release v1.25.0. So much exciting stuff, from Podman to debugging to Debian Trixie updates, https://ddev.com/blog/release-v1250

What's in store for 2026, including goals and (incredibly honest) risks: 🎯💡 https://ddev.com/blog/2026-plans/

Use Git Worktree and DDEV to Run Multiple Versions of the Same Site

Multiple local versions at once. Less branch juggling. More productivity.
Worth a look if you want your workflow to behave.

The wonderful folks at Upsun (formerly Platform.sh) have had to decrease their monthly sponsorship to #DDEV. They are still sponsoring over $1k/month USD, but we are now asking the community's help in filling the gap: 🙏

On further reflection/experimentation, for me, the best method of getting #DDEV onto #Bluefin is to ignore Homebrew and layer it on via rpm-ostree.

If you are using #ddev & the ddev #phpstorm extension on #bluefin you need to install nss-tools with rpm-ostree to get mkcert to work correctly, and in PHPStorm point the extension to the ddev binary in /var/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ddev #php

I'm super-proud to have played a small part in making this happen: 🎉
