    It would, but that *would only work/be possible if *you are running docker as the root user. Though people OFTEN create a docker user that runs docker as root, which is a bad practice and source of confusion. Docker is plenty safe, but I don’t even want to argue that, it’s completely irrelevant. I don’t actually care how you run it. Docker compose is by far the standard for home server applications. You can use podman with it, it’s fine. You can skip it entirely and run it directly. These are merely options provided.

    Here is the install instructions for Sonarr, arguably the most famous example of something people self host. https://sonarr.tv/#downloads-docker

    They have non-docker instructions too of course, as do I. Am I correct that a few of you are mad that I included dockerfiles and docker compose examples in the repo? Where did I go wrong?

    pinchflat I hadn’t seen that one before. No it’s pretty similar to be honest. I am planning on small feature that would make it slightly different but, ya same idea. I do like my UI more 🤷. That was my main issue with most of the existing ones that I had seen, I just didn’t liek the UI. Except for cobalt.tools, but it’s broken.

    virtually all home server setups run docker compose. No one is complaining about Docker, they’re complaining about AI. The code is immaculate. Its fully tested as well. No one has looked at the code, they’ve just complained.

    Also idk where you heard Docker is like giving root, thats just not correct on multiple levels. If it were a privledged container, which is unnecessary, then we could have a discussion. If you want a daemonless service, use podman. Use anything you want, the source is there. Docker is not a requirement but is certainly not an issue in any way.
