Currently all containerised running on a debian VM on a Rockylinux Qemu/KVM hypervisor. Initially I was using rocky+podman but inevitably hit something I wanted to run that just straight up needed docker and was too much effort to try and get working. 🤷

Hardware is an circa 2012 gaming machine with a few ZFS raids for all of my Linux ISOs. It lives an extremely tortured existence and longs for the sweet release of death.

Toying with the idea of migrating it all to on-prem virtualised kubernetes cluster using helm charts to manage the stacks and using NFS mounts for persistent storage because I hate myself (and to upskill I guess)

What about you?

File sharing / storage via SSH, Minecraft server.

I used to self host everything but nowadays I value my time too much so I have moved my data to google drive and back it up to a local hard disk periodically. Photos go to iCloud and google photos. iCloud is running my email domain (previously was google domains/gmail)

I still do run a Plex server with my shield tv pro but that’s mostly to access my TV tuner as I stream my media from google drive directly instead.

I just got tired of taking time away from my family to troubleshoot my services or just live with downtime. I did run a $5 linode to host things for awhile but eventually it just became more cost effective to just refactor things to run natively on various cloud services. I even just redesigned my personal website/blog to run on google sites

I still love to follow the self hosted community, someday I will take my data back just not right now.

I had you till you got to running your blog on google sites. Like not even blogger, but straight up google sites. As someone who tried using google sites for this purpose, I wrote one post and I was like, not doing it, it is too much.

Totally respect that, I question my sanity frequently

I only self-host a MediaWiki website at the moment, along with a PPSSPP adhoc server for said game that the wiki is related to. I want to self-host a lot more stuff, but storage space is expensive, and I don't really want to leave things running at home all the time either as it will eat into my electricity bill.

Nextcloud and OnlyOffice are what I'm interested in next, and perhaps a Fediverse platform.

One thing I've not been able to find, unfortunately, is a good replacement for subsonic for my 1.5TB mp3 and FLAC collection.

Everything I've tried to host dockerized has just crawled.

But other than that, hosting mostly for nyswlf..

The typical arrs, subsonic, spotweb, pinhole, duckdns, caliber, calibre web, qbittorrent via a dockerized vpn client

All containerized

As someone who's used Podman for a while, though possibly not as extensively as you, what was it you hit that needed Docker? So far I've gotten everything to work with Podman, though sometimes I've had to RTFM and specify some extra command line parameters.
