I set it up years ago when I still had Ubuntu desktop running on an old laptop. Just kept using it even after using and learning kubernetes at work on an enterprise scale. Also the automatic image checks, easy to check metrics, logs, and endpoints. I have 33 containers right now, it’s just simple to see them all in one screen.
Comment on Portainer 3.0 is coming, and here's what it means for you — Portainer

Maybe it helps if you have a gigantic stack of containers, but I’ve honestly never seen the point of Portainer when I can just look at my compose file.

Does your compose file in itself give you a nice, easily readable status display, analytics, metrics, logging, etc. interface?
DigDoug@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No, but I’ve never needed them.
Logging, loggijg into the shell and network creation was my singular use case for portainer.
