Comment on What's up, selfhosters? - The Sunday thread
TK420@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoI had a pair of v5 with unbound setup, and ran the pihole -up and it went down lol. Dunno what happened, but i reinstalled and it’s all good.
I only run the basic block list, so I am thinking more and more to setup docker on my main server and move my pihole, pyvpn and grafana there and free up my raspi.

Hmm, I wonder if the failed updates are only direct installs vs docker.
I run two piholes, a primary on a rpi 3b running pios, and a secondary on my main server. Both are installed via docker and both updated without issue (besides the password thing).
I like having the primary DNS on a separate machine; it’s kind of important and I like to mess with the main server a lot…

I also like to mess around so more and more docker seems like at least an ok idea if not a good idea.

I definitely recommend it, particularly using docker compose. It’s made it incredibly easy to add, remove, and modify software installs; keeping everything independent and isolated from each other.
This also makes backups and rolling back updates to individual projects much easier when you do run into problems.

I appreciate the motivation. Thanks!
