Has anyone tested yunohost?

  I was searching for something like this! Seems really promising, I’ll check it, thanks!

  Yunohost is okayish. Some apps sadly are badly maintained and therefore upgraded with more delay than I considered acceptable (but that has improved afaik)and integration into a single “look and feel” is a bit lacking. Nevertheless it’s solid in the end.

  If you are willing to pay something Cloudron may be an alternative for you as well - very well maintained product, good support team and rock solid from my experience - and it’s a non-US/non-China company. (German to be exact) But it costs money for more than 2 applications.

  I really like it. Yes, you have way more control by using docker/nixos/etc of course, but for things like seafile or nextcloud, yunohost does the good ol’ 80% job with 20% of the effort and time, at least for me.

  Never heard of it till now, now I’m going to try it out!

  Yes, it’s pretty good! I’m a DevOps engineer, and have experience with Ansible, Docker, etc, but I just couldn’t find time to deploy services the best way that I wanted™ for my personal server

  So, even though it e.g. doesn’t even use Docker, yunohost really helped me start using the many services I wanted/needed, which otherwise might take e.g. a few hours to a couple of days for each of them to research and configure

  So I have one “production” yunohost server, one “testing” yunohost server to test services that I don’t know if I’ll use yet (and I wouldn’t want them to interfere with production e.g. by using too many resources)

  and one server without yunohost for mailu, Docker, traefik, etc, which I can use to deploy services the correct way™ as I figure out the services that I really use and find the time to deploy them one-by-one

  Even when using yunohost, there are so many things to do after deploying a service (e.g. DNS, configure the server and client software), so it has been really useful to save time when deploying and configuring.

  I think it gets you ~80% there, helps democratize the Internet a bit, and make self-hosting accessible to everyone 💚 It’s more important to have many people setting up e.g. Immich or Nextcloud for their family photos, than only a few Linux people being able to learn how to do it perfectly and everyone else to have to resort to using centralized services

  Umbrel, Cosmos Cloud, Caprover, Yacht, Dokku, there’s a billion of these things.

  Des, it has, what most others lack: Single Sign In and many Apps.

  not myself, but my stepdad tried it with 2 decades of IT and linux sysadmin experience.

  basically, it is great if you want to host like 2 or 3 standalone services on a pi to get into understanding how the basics of selfhosting work, but for homelabs and deep customization, you’re better off with docker.

  Elena Rossini (@_elena@mastodon.social) is a journalist who’s gotten into the fediverse and self hosting with Yuno Host. She’s documented it on her blog. It’s worked out really well for her.

  Big part of me loving selfhosting stuff is that I get to learn things a lot. I think it’s pretty amazing that these sort of projects exist but I’ll always use good ol’ $BASIC_SERVER_OS.

  I’ve used it when I started out and it’s good, I can recommend it if you just want something where you can hit install and it works. I just use docker containers now though because I have more experience and it allows to set everything up exactly how I want.

  • whysofurious@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Same process here, started with yunojost and now using docker directly. Still Yunohost got me into self-hosting when I didn’t know anything about it, definitely recommended for starting out.

  I did some testing with it, because I believe more people should be able to self-host.

  I like how it is implemented. It has good support for email. Many apps support SSO.

  The critical part to me is how up-to-date applications are. I started a small project to automate version tracking, check out:

  alexpdp7.github.io/…/nextcloud.html

  ; so for example, the YunoHost Nextcloud app does not lag much behind upstream. My intention with this is to let people see that they have been updating Nextcloud dilligently for two years; they might pull the plug tomorrow, but it’s a good track record.

  (I’d like to add scrapers to other projects similar to YunoHost. My ultimate goal would be to be able to choose a list of apps you’d like to self-host, and see which projects like YunoHost carry the applications you want, and compare how they track updates.)

  Used for years, then moved into docker containers.

  It’s pretty rad, especially as a domain controller.

  Looks good. But I got burnt with CasaOS. Only App organizer I still use is dockge.

  • theorangeninja@sopuli.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    +1 for dockge. But that’s something for later. Yunohost is a great way to get a feeling for selfhosting.

    what do you meant with burnt? i thought its even easier than yunohost?

    source

    • Samsy@lemmy.ml ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Burnt my fingers. It’s not enough freedom for changing compose settings. But that’s just my two cents.

  Nice as a starting point, but not enough features to make it worth it for advanced setups.

• mesamunefire@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  Use it everyday. I self host a number of fedi services. It's a great os.

  Most of the apps are great, but there are a couple that are no longer maintained.

• specialseaweed@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  I had the same experience as many here. Great place to start out and if you don’t need or want more control then it’s perfect. I ended up on unraid and mostly use docker for apps.

    For my vps i use yunohost and for selfhosting from Synology to unraid now. Yunohost is very time saving with subdomain and security Management.

  I run Dokploy which is like yunohost but a little bit more advanced.
