What's Your Preferred Server Monitoring Method?
How do you monitor your server containers, disks, load...?
Do you use an easy-to-use web interface? Do you do everything via SSH? Or maybe you've got a more complicated setup?
I want to change my setup and I'm looking for new ideas, I've been using Cockpit for some years and some of the plugins are really outdated (ZFS for example) and others are completely broken (docker-compose).

I was looking for something free that I could host on my machine but thanks, I didn't know about it
Netdata is free and can be run standalone. Just install it and do not configure the cloud integration. You can see your dashboard on localhost:19999
Oh that's neat, will take a look! Can you run it on docker?

As others stated, you can run and access the interface locally (or setup your own reverse proxy) for free. Their Cloud dashboard is also free for up to 5 nodes. They recently added a flat-rate "Homelab" plan as well, if you want to remove the limit. It's all quite usable for $0 otherwise though!
