Rootless linger

I was new to using Docker rootless, and wasn't aware that systemd stops user services at logout. Docker itself doesn't provide any obvious logs that this is what stopped the container, and automatic restarts were allowed to trigger, leading to very unintuitive hard-to-debug problems, starting at random times when my login shell automatically exited. Some mention of `users.users.<name>.linger` similar to docker docs `sudo loginctl enable-linger $(whoami)` command would help those new to rootless docker tremendously. Also hi!

That is a very useful note to make, thanks! Updated the page. Pigs (talk) 21:04, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
