Running Oracle XE docker container with colima not working on Apple M2

I followed the steps in this blog post using colima, but I am still running into issues and I don't know what I'm missing.

Here is my docker-compose YAML file:

version: '3.1'

services:
    oracle:
        container_name: oracleDB
        image: gvenzl/oracle-xe:18
        platform: linux/amd64
        ports:
            - "1521:1521"
        environment:
            ORACLE_PASSWORD: "StrongPassword"

And this is the log:

CONTAINER: starting up...
CONTAINER: first database startup, initializing...
CONTAINER: uncompressing database data files, please wait...
CONTAINER: done uncompressing database data files, duration: 14 seconds.
CONTAINER: starting up Oracle Database...

I set up colima and started it like this: colima start --arch x86_64 --memory 4

After that, I started the docker container and expected to work normally, but it seems like either the colima setup was not enough or there is some setup missing in the docker-compose YAML file. I'd appreciate a second pair of eyes for this.

In case you're okay with Oracle EE and Docker you can build and run your own image for Apple Silicon:

Oracle19c container is now running on Apple Silicon. Just follow the Linux ARM64 instructions.

% ./buildContainerImage.sh -v 19.3.0 -e
Oracle Database container image for 'ee' version 19.3.0 is ready to be extended: 
--> oracle/database:19.3.0-ee
Build completed in 207 seconds.
