For some reason Ethan does not have cosmos on his radar, while they had an update recently too. See v0.20

Cosmos seems really nice, I hadn't heard of it. I'm a bit afraid of having a single point of failure for so many functions, though.

I'm using it since before v0.10, never had issues. But I'm not using everything. But container management, auto-update, and proxy never gave me a problem.

If you're running Cosmos as a docker container instead of as the base operating system, then it just acts as a container management UI and reverse proxy. There's some other stuff built in with their Constellation VPN (similar to wireguard/tail scale) and the app store for 1-click installs. But you don't get any of the storage management tools from the OS version.

You can still manage and install docker containers like normal or with compose files and have them show up in Cosmos.

Oh, it's meant to be run as the base OS! I get it now, thanks so much for explaining.

One of the features of Self-Host Weekly is the Command Line Corner. I always scroll right to that first thing

MarkStack looks ideal for publishing docs for family

Fast, minimal static site generator that transforms markdown into searchable documentation sites. Built to run anywhere, even on a Raspberry Pi.

Might have to give Scanopy a go.

Same, been looking for something like that

I've been using Cosmos for almost a year now, huge fan of it. Makes things super simple for a newbie, but you can still take a peek at how things are working under the hood to build docker management and reverse proxy skills
