i didnt try, i think it would be harder to install, why dont u want to use docker?

[–] vort3@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago (15 children)

Because I don't like docker. It's one more abstraction layer that I don't understand, going to spend time learning how to use it, need to maintain it, it's gonna take up space on my SSD etc.

Same for flatpak, snap etc.

One developer thinks flatpak is the latest shiny hype thing ans releases his software as a flatpak. The other does snap. Third one prefers docker. Fourth one maybe something else.

I don't want to maintain this zoo of package managers on my desktop and think about "wait, was this app a docker or a flatpak, how do I update it?". I want to sudo apt install everything because that's the default package manager for my distro and I expect all the software to be in a repo that works with it.

Not to sound entitled or anything, it's just natural to not want to use docker imho.

I just want to encourage you to reconsider. Docker (or podman) is worth taking the time to figure out. It's not particularly difficult to learn the basics of, and is extremely powerful.

Your life as a self-hoster will be massively simplified by spending a weekend learning to use docker or podman. Not using containerization is like opting in to hard mode with dependency and configuration hell.

Yes but the app in OP clearly states it's not meant to be open to the internet, it's just a booru with web UI to be used on localhost. So it kinda has nothing to do with self hosting in a regular sense, why docker?

[–] lukecooperatus@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

You might be right about this software, but regardless of this specific use-case, I was responding to your overall sentiment towards containerization in general. It's worth looking more into, that's all!

there are quite a few apps where you dont necessarily are open to the internet, ive installed karakeep this way and karakeep doesn't need to download or upload stuff online, but maybe there are some internet related features. for example monbooru has a planned feature where you download from a booru and it automatically adds those tags.
