I run nextcloud on mine.

If I were doing it again today, I would try the AIO installation

I regret going all in on Tuta :(

Gmx for automatic emails to myself since the Calibre days. Maybe there is something better now.

I use them. I also like their vibe and aesthetic

Ok, thanks, I was wondering how a container would get its own IP address. A reverse proxy makes way more sense.

That sounds really great! I see now why people like it

The only way I know of giving one computer multiple IP addresses is proxmox but can you do that with docker also?

I don’t really understand what a TCP stack is, but my question is if your IP address is 192.168.1.2, and you want to run two different services that both have a web interface. You still have to configure both of them to use different port numbers.

If you don’t think of doing that and they both default to 8000 for example and you try to run them both at the same time, I imagine you would get a conflict when you try to go to 192.168.1.2:8000 or even localhost:8000.

I still feel like I’m missing something. Flatpaks help you sidestep dependency hell, so what is docker for? What advantages does further containerization give you if you aren’t going as far as proxmox vms.?

I guess I’ve only tried running one service at a time that needed a database, so I get it if a Docker container can include a database and a flatpak cannot.

How isolated could it really be as a docker container vs a separate machine or proxmox? You will still have to make sure that port numbers don’t conflict, etc, but now there is a layer of complexity added (docker)

I’m not saying it is bad, I just don’t understand the benefits vs costs.

Yes

Holy shit, this is amazing. Thank you so, so much for sharing this. I had not heard of it, and I am often stymied by journal CTL, since I don’t really know how it works. So I will most definitely be using this on my desktop and possibly on my self-hosted stuff as well. Thank you again.

Oh my god, thank you for asking this question. There is so much great advice in this thread as a result.

Sounds good. What are the downsides?

(Read the room, dude!)

I am saving this thread to try and find a good tutorial for myself. That said, I have had a great experience on #networking on libera.chat, which is IRC. They have been very patient with me and often willing to go into detail in a beginner-friendly way.

Unfortunately, they are not accessible via the web chat, so you have to use an IRC client and register and account, which is relatively painless, but might take 10 to 15 minutes to get started.

I started off with nextcloud on bare metal on my Raspberry Pi and there was a lot that I could never configure quite right on the server side of things. Stuff like getting the right memory usage dialed in for the web server. I moved to NextCloudPi and it solved a lot of those problems for me. But it looks like the maintainer is not wanting to maintain it forever.

Someday, I will migrate to nextcloud AIO, but I’m not looking forward to the migration.

I did not realize they had a free tier, thanks!

I tried it butit didn’t have the same hook for me. Maybe the complexity wasn’t my thing.

The ones I have played recently are Pirate Solitaire and Vector Pinball, both available on F-Droid.
