    I tried it 3 months ago. It looked nice had some cool features, but It didn’t fit into my personal selfhosted Home server.

    This is more or like to help less-tech savy people to secure their infrastructure, which is a good point, but can’t replace a complex wireguard, VPN, opnsense, 2FA , self-signed CA, docker installation.

    It’s a bit like Nginx proxy manager, it’s good enough, does what it is suposed to do with minimal user inputs. Less prone to error, security issues…







  • I wish It could be so simple for everyone… Docker is great when you have an old spare laptop and want to self host a few nice things: vaultwarden, traefik, searxng… Sure it’s relatively new compared to VMs and is going to have some security flaws and reworks during the maturing process… But VMs had also their ups and downs long time ago before It got in a stable maturing state !

    VM are nice but we (in my opinion) as human species need to find other solutions to get away from energy, rare metal hungry devices… something in between docker and VMs. But that’s just my opinion.

    Plus, docker and derivatives are also really interesting technologies where you have to read manuals and gain deep and durable knowledge to understand the future of virtualization.



  • This makes me anxious… How do you cope with all these different technologies… I mean everything is evolving so fast and everyone wants to have his OWN way of doing things… This is messed up ! Right now IT seems a big maze of technologies and nobody seems to be in sync with each other… specially in devOP and Networking…

    I don’t know about Podman, but it’s baffling how much you need to know and understand in IT… And If every 3 years you have to relearn everything, it’s a never ending chase of dying and abandoned technologies and a wast of time :/

    Just my 2cent, nothing special !
