+# run Teams in a podman container
+
+## requirements
+
+* podman
+* make
+
+
+## usage
+
+```bash
+# run in background
+make run-bg PROFILE=my-profile
+
+# stop container
+make stop PROFILE=my-profile
+```
+
+## why?
+
+Whenever you try to run multiple instances of Chromium (and Chrome), the second
+instance detects it's already running and instead of creating a new, independent 
+process, it attaches to the already running instance.
+
+While this mechanism saves a bunch of memory, for some use cases this is
+counter-productive, eg. if you need to change global browser settings for
+testing/developing purpose while you're running Teams.
