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.

Yeah, I don't really like using Docker so I always go for easier option, but my friend uses Docker a lot and also had troubles with Overleaf.
I don't work for university, but I am a student that needs Latex. Overleaf free plan got really bad, even my thesis cannot be compiled now and Overleaf pricing isn't really great. Student pricing is only for annually subscription, so it is not ideal for me.
Right, Docker can definitely be a daunting system to learn, but it's the standard because it's so reliable and flexible. I've been using CasaOS because it's basically Docker on easy mode, with limited package support, but I've decided recently that I really should just learn how to use Docker properly.
I know some Docker, even I built my own images, but I just don't really like Docker.
Usually docker is the easiest option as you don't have to install a lot of dependencies, then set up other services and databases and whatnot. Especially if you use docker-compose.
The easier option is hunting for Docker Compose...
A Docker Compose is literally just a bunch of Docker commands in yaml format. Can’t say I understand how one can be any easier or harder than the other, considering they basically directly map one to another.
I know, That's why I said I always look for Docker Compose bc it is the easier option.
There’s even a website that translates it for you: https://www.composerize.com/
Yeah, Even Dockge can do that
So…? 🤷♀️
What? xD
