How do I increase or eliminate the pull timeout when trying to run bluefin-cli for the first time? I have very slow internet (~3Mbps) and it always times out after 5 minutes:

Maybe just pull the container by hand and wait for it to finish then restart the service?

Thank you, Jorge. Sorry for the delayed reply.

Yes, it was sufficient to just run `podman pull ghcr.io/ublue-os/bluefin-cli:latest`, and once it completed then _Meta+Enter_ entered the container.
