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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Why run Docker Desktop when it's installable as a cli service?
What are you actually trying to achieve?
ease of use.
I'm a noob at networking.
there's only one way to get better at it. by doing it.
Or if it’s not something that’s valuable to you just do it the easy way.
As a Mac user who's migrated over to Linux over the past year or so, I've got an idea of where OP is coming from.
Docker on macOS is accessed via a Desktop GUI, so you can easily see what you have installed, how it's running, etc... So when I shifted over to Linux, I was thrown off by there being no such tool. I wasn't used to using a terminal to do everything, and grumbled quite a lot about there being no Docker Desktop GUI, given how many self-hostable services run through Docker.
I've since gotten used to it, but it really is quite jarring.
