I recently discovered yunohost, a French project for easy selfhosting. Does anyone have experience with that?
yunotryityourself?
Looks good. But I got burnt with CasaOS. Only App organizer I still use is dockge.
what do you meant with burnt? i thought its even easier than yunohost?
Burnt my fingers. It’s not enough freedom for changing compose settings. But that’s just my two cents.
Yunohost is okayish. Some apps sadly are badly maintained and therefore upgraded with more delay than I considered acceptable (but that has improved afaik)and integration into a single “look and feel” is a bit lacking. Nevertheless it’s solid in the end.
If you are willing to pay something Cloudron may be an alternative for you as well - very well maintained product, good support team and rock solid from my experience - and it’s a non-US/non-China company. (German to be exact) But it costs money for more than 2 applications. I nevertheless went with them - I don’t self host as a hobby, I self-host because I want shit to work. Between job and family I have no time to fiddle around with things and keep everything updated on a short notice. I have project where I can do that, but they are not something my family or myself depend on. (And they integrate nicely with Cloudron as you can add “custom” Apps/use it as a proxy and OpenID Provider)
Nice! I live in Germany and your situation looks similar to mine. I started with Linux 20 years ago and bought a Synology about a year ago. I have my most essential services (backup, photos, Media server and paperless) running on that machine in my local network. I started with a small VPS and a blog after this, to see if I could handle managing a server. It went well.
We have a small cabin we share with others and I wanted to set up some basic services like a calendar. Went across a post about yunohost and gave it a try.
Have a look at Cloudron as well,then. It’s free for 2 Apps and Johannes (the founder) is a fairly nice guy from Bavaria.
Anyway,yeah. I have a different post here what I self host (which doesn’t even include everything…) so it’s a slippery slope.
