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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I'm looking to migrate all of my containers to rootless podman but need some advice.

All of my services are currently running docker compose. I've played arount with podman but I am unsure of best practice: I have the option of installing podman-docker, podman-compose, or docker-compose connected to a podman socket. What's the recommended way here?

I also can't seem to find any information on setting up a systemd unit for rootless podman compose. How are you all auto starting podman (compose) files?

I’ve no experience with Podman but genuinely interested why would you use this instead of Docker/Kubernetes?

The simplicity of docker with much better security. Honestly the main appeal of having my homelab is to play with technologies and learn new things. The couple times I've skimmed the docs for Kubernetes it seemed over complicated for a personal homelab.
