I would have taken a deep dive into docker and containerised pretty much everything.
Converting my environment to be mostly containerized was a bit of a slow process that taught me a lot, but now I can try out new applications and configurations at such an accelerated rate it's crazy. Once I got the hang of Docker (and Ansible) it became so easy to try new things, tear them down and try again. Moving services around, backing up or restoring data is way easier.
I can't overstate how impactful containerization has been to my self hosting workflow.
Same here. Now I'm half docker and half random other stuff.
I'm mostly docker. I want to selfhost Lemmy but there's no one-click Docker Compsoe / Portainer installer yet (for Swag / Nginx proxy manager) so I won't until it's ready
Same for me. I've known about Docker for many years now but never understood why I would want to use it when I can just as easily install things directly and just never touch them. Then I ran into dependency problems where two pieces of software required different versions of the same library. Docker just made this problem completely trivial.
Same, but I've never once touched Docker and am doing everything old skool on top of Proxmox. Others may or may not like this approach, but it has many of the benefits in terms of productivity (ease of experimentation, migration, upgrade etc)
