Comment on What OS should I use for self-hosting that doesn't require extensive terminal knowledge?

I would recommend trying out Cockpit (Github) and Portainer (Github).
Cockpit gives you a WebUI for Linux and Portainer gives you a WebUI for Docker.
Personally I usually run Debian Stable for servers, but choice of distro matters little if you run stuff as Docker containers.

thanks! Maybe I could check out cockpit and portainer too…

Might want to use dockge instead of portainer.
github.com/louislam/dockge
Portainer has… Weird issues.
scheep@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
What kind of issues?
Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 5 weeks ago
Ive had several stacks just fail to deploy in portainer.
Copy pasting the composes then running them as vanilla yamls or in dockge they worked entirely fine.
Can’t remember the exact compose files but I remember they were Linux server containers. No idea what the issue is/was since its been years.

Not knocking Dockge, but I have to say I was underwhelmed coming from Portainer. It obviously works for a lot of people, so I might just be ‘special’.

I mean its not really meant to be special. Just a good management frontend.
