I got the joke, it just fell flat

That's what I'd do. I don't have a home server yet but my game server is an Ubuntu server running the game in Podman (instead of Docker).

I'm using felddy's image on my own server!

Foundry VTT could be really good. Lots of folk self host it but don't know how so anything to simplify running it would be great. There's no official Docker image though.

Excellent! Good to hear it may be on the way!

Does it support Podman or is it just Docker? If it's just Docker, please consider Podman support as it's open source and most secure by default thanks to running as a user instead of as root yet is almost completely compatible with Docker.

Probably not quite what you mean but Foundry VTT makes playing Role Playing Games like Dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder online much better. Most competitors are cloud hosted and all but the basic features are locked behind a subscription whereas Foundry is an application you buy outright. The catch is that it still needs hosting somewhere so those with any technical wherewithal either host it in Oracle's Cloud since "always free" tier VMs are ample to run it or else self-host on a Raspberry Pi or similar. Those who don't self-host have no other recourse except to pay a housing service like Forge a monthly subscription for a limited amount of disk space
