Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I do this out of habit because this is how my work does it, but I honestly don't know the benefits of doing it this way. Can you explain (or provide a link?)

Ive found it to just be easier to manage rootless containers this way.
I've never tried Podman myself, but managing the containers using systemd would mean that you use exactly the same commands to start a Docker container as you would use to start a regular service. The fact that it's running in a container essentially just becomes an implementation detail, and you don't have to remember what's running in containers vs what's not running in containers.
