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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I’ve done that before.
Docker is pretty easy to use, don’t get intimidated. Start with a simpler service that you’ve used before so you can understand which string is tied to where.
What’s great with Yunohost is it’s domain controls. It’s very easy to set up a free domain, or use your own domain with it. So that’s the main reason I’m keeping Yunohost around.
One thing if you think to use them in conjunction that YH has a firewall and occupies some port that could got conflicts with Docker containers.
Thank you!
Are there any simple services you’d recommend starting with to get a feel for things? I’ll probably start with AdGuard, unless there’s a better option
And I don’t plan to use both at the same time, so conflicting ports shouldn’t be an issue.
Is the process for configuring your own domain with Docket enough of a pain that I should consider sticking with YunoHost?
Put Adguard in second spot since it does some non-basic stuff with networking.
Do you use any *arr? Those are easy enough. Or Jellyfin maybe? My top recommendation would be Portainer, which offers a handsome interface for Docker management. That will help you out of the sea.
Docker doesn’t really offer any domain-related functionality at all. You can host an app for that as well, but I found YH is just easier.
I don’t use any *arr, though I’ve been meaning to look more into it. I do use Jellyfin though, so I’ll probably start there.
I’ll take a look at Nginx proxy manager for domain configuration, like another user in this thread suggested
