I was using webmin, but since my last server died and I'm making a new one, I decided I'd look into something different, personally I liked webmin but didn't use most of its functionality and felt a little clunky for my basic use. I've also testran casaos but felt weirdly limited and couldn't smoothly migrate docker containers to interact with its interface.

I can do with just the terminal, but it's nice having a gui that I can glance at my phone and quickly do stuff like update and reboot.

I personally haven't seen or found much conversation into the topic so I figured I'd ask and see what you peeps use and why.

Opentofu for all the looking after the config on my proxmox boxes and networking gear. Ansible for everything else.

I don't currently have any monitoring set up but it's in the to do list when I feel like it.

Check out gatus. Super easy to get up and running depending on what type of monitoring you want to do.

Check out gatus.

It doesn't do SNMP. That's ... bold.
