docs: lima is not a container engine
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
You can use Lima to run different container engines, such as
containerd or Docker or Podman but it runs virtual machines.

Currently containerd is *only* supported through Kubernetes,
there is no direct support for "nerdctl" in Podman Desktop.
