Plex Media Server Installation Help

I just installed Bazzite after trying a couple distros and it seems to run best on my hardware, but I have hit a snag, I cannot seem to install plex media server because dnf is not installed. So I did a search and found that for Bazzite, because it is not editable, I should try to run from a container.

I don't appear to be able to install docker, so I tried podman, but I don't seem to have the ability to run compose.... now, just to be clear I am not an expert at containers yet, but that seems to be an issue stopping me.

I was gonna try distrobox, but I cannot run the plex image that way (that I can figure out) and it doesn't seem to let me mount drives directly anyways (again the documentation for distrobox is nowhere near as good as Docker, so I could be missing something.

I made myself a podman compose file, but I need to figure out how to actually use it. I would really appreciate some guidance here.
