They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard!

We install Debian, Docker, Immich, and even Nextcloud and run a tiny self-hosted virtual Homelab.

@art getting Bob Ross vibes 😁 "we got a little ISO here and now this ISO needs a little friend here..." 😁
@art cool vid! btw. you might appreciate my recent find: github.com/F1bonacc1/process-c Im basically using a docker-compose.yml + process-compose.yml to prototype a portable serverstack (without systemd/ansible/proxmox cruft)

@bloodaxe@fosstodon.org I use Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM). You port forward your router to point to port 80 and 443 of your NPM server and then in NPM you can point to your other local servers via a domain. Fx minecraft.mydomain.com > 192.168.1.20:25565. You can also use NPM to setup SSL certificates automatically.
or, install yunohost. org, it will automagically do it all including opening ports and give u a free subdomain :)

This isn’t aimed at the person making the video because there’s about 1000 videos like it, but these videos I find are rarely a help. They walk you through enough to follow the instructions found on their official documentation and then the presenter is like, “and there you have it!”
There’s always so many things glossed over and no matter who you are 12 minutes will never be enough to introduce Docker. And yet you will find video after video of people doing 10-minute Docker tutorials.
There are just so many things ignored like how to setup reverse proxies, file locations/permissions, backups, and more that all get obfuscated by Docker and people never mention in these videos. Why do people keep making this style of introduction?
Anyone can follow the first three steps of a GitHub Readme. It’s the 10 steps after that a beginner would want to know about and that’s right where all these videos end.
Yeah. Usually videos like this also make no mention of security implications and how to best secure your setup. It’s part of why shodan has so many vulnerable, public facing endpoints owned by individuals.
