What do you use for your server administration? (piefed.social)

I was using webmin, but since my last server died and I'm making a new one, I decided I'd look into something different, personally I liked webmin but didn't use most of its functionality and felt a little clunky for my basic use. I've also testran casaos but felt weirdly limited and couldn't smoothly migrate docker containers to interact with its interface.

I can do with just the terminal, but it's nice having a gui that I can glance at my phone and quickly do stuff like update and reboot.

I personally haven't seen or found much conversation into the topic so I figured I'd ask and see what you peeps use and why.

Proxmox to manage my VMs, SSH for anything on the command line and portainer for managing my docker containers.

One day I will switch probably switch to dockge so my docker-compose files are stored plain on the hard drive but for now portainer works flawlessly.

dockge needs me to maintain my dockercompose on its own folder in /opt/ as root.

I just wanna keep my compare in its own repos

Huh, that's not my case at all, I run everything from the home folder with my user

[–] Scrath@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah, that would be the ideal scenario I guess.

It should technically be possible by mapping the compose files into the opt folder via docker mounts but I think that's an unreasonable way to go about this since every compose file would need a mounting point
