Any YUNOhost people here? What are your thoughts about it? Does it fulfil it's purpose of broadening accessibility to self-hosting? Is it secure? Interested to hear what you think.

I'm on day one of Yunohost after months of trying to work out how to approach hosting things like Nextcloud and struggling through bare metal installations, trying to slowly get my head around Docker. Its like suddenly seeing the light .. I mean I really didn't think I would almost have an email server running today. (Its this a dangerous thing?)

It's pretty amazing isn't it?! There's no way that I would have had the time and patience set up a server without it.

It’s a great entry point for Self Hosting. I learned a lot with it about hard to grasp concepts.

Used it for years until I felt ready to move on to Docker.

I use it all the time. Works pretty good.

Yep, great project, was so easy to install and maintain with Debian 11 on a TinyPC. Works fine for me and my family, private data and business. Working with Yunohost, Nextcloud, SyncThing.

I like that I don't have to fiddle with it so much. I've maintained AWS for my day job, I just want something that does everything. I'm tired when I get home.

If I remember correctly, I think I tried running Lemmy using Yunohost about a year ago. I don't remember exactly how it went, but I don't think I was successful. It was probably my fault since Lemmy has a few moving parts.

At the end of the day, I just prefer containers and run all of my stuff in Docker.

I like the idea of Yunohost, but I wonder if it's geared towards people who prefer to run things on bare metal... and that type of person doesn't usually need a helper script type of solution.

I think Yunohost is great. It was easier for me to set up that trying to figure out Docker. I run a few sites including AdGuard Home as well as personal Pixelfed and Lemmy instances with it in a VM on an older Ubuntu box. That said, I'm stuck on Lemmy 0.18.2 without pict-rs because the update script to the latest version available on Yunohost (0.18.3 with pict-rs) is broken. Oh well!

Using it for 4-5 years. Very satisfied with it although some hiccups here and there. Not sure if a stick with it or move to cosmos-cloud.io

[-] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

That's cool. I think I've been using it for nearly two years. I had no prior experience with servers and got a bit confused at times in the beginning but these days I hardly need to touch it. How come you're thinking of switching to Cosmos just out of interest?

[-] WeAreAllOne@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

That is a very good question why I'm thinking about switching. I guess out of curiosity and also I think (which I might be wrong) that Cosmos seems to be more secure.

[-] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Their website does make security look like a big priority. I wonder about the security of my YUNOhost server but am not really sure how to evaluate it.

[-] WeAreAllOne@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

That makes 2 of us. I hope someone can offer any input here...

Love it. Been using it for almost 10 years now. I host Nextcloud, Navidrome and Gotify. I have used it for other services over the years. Super easy and really friendly and responsive support.
