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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Hi, this is an open-source tool used by many big companies. It actually is really just a command line tool to help manage docker containers, so there isn't much of a lock in. I understand your worry but this is much better than docker compose because this manages deployments for you. You don't need to log into the server yourself, just update the config and hit deploy.

Thanks for the explanation. And thanks for the article. I learnt something today.

I apologise for other users downvoting this post, seems petty.
