Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I've never really seen why portainer is used beyond a shiny UI. Docker compose file is enough for me
Terminals are powerful and flexible, but still slower than a dedicated UI to see states at a glance, issue routine commands, or do text editing.
Terminal absolutists are as insufferable as GUI purists. There is a place and time for both.
Beautifully said. I can't say I've come across too many GUI purists, but I've definitely been shamed by terminal absolutists who are fine with turning a 1 second process into a 10 second one. There's a time and place for both.

Wtf at y'all talking about, it's usually way faster to do these things in terminal. I guarantee I can restart a docker container faster with a terminal then you can with a browser.
Alt+enter brings up a terminal, then I type literally "ssh server" and I'm ssh'd into the box. 'sudo docker restart containername' and the password and I'm done before Firefox even loads for your dumbass and I didn't even have to lift my hands from the keyboard. And for common and repeatable tasks there are these things called aliases and the ability to chain commands. I can condense all of that to a single command. Lmao. GUI plebs are so annoying with their ignorance
Wow, you're an ass. I bet I could update a dual monitor setup with different resolutions, refresh rates and positions with nvidia-settings faster than you can editing xorg.conf in vim. My point is that people should use the best tool for the job instead of stroking their superiority complex to prove a point.
slackware has been my daily driver since the late 90s. It still boots to CLI by default. I'm more than comfortable in a terminal emulator. I'm also fine with clicking on stuff. I don't use portainer, but there's nothing wrong with people who do.
