You can if you want to. But I don’t think that is best practice. The idea of quadlets is the bring Linux norms to containers. You contain and manage all permissions for that container in that user.
I personally have completely separated users and selinux mls contexts for each container group (formerly docker compose file) and I manage them thusly. It’s more annoying but it substantially more secure.
This being said I think you can do it as root. I think this might work but I am not certain sudo systemctl --user-M theuser@ status myunit.service
Yeah, that works, but it means the services cannot be managed by systemctl as root anymore. Or am I missing something?
