I’ve been using FreedomBox with a few friends for about two months now, and it’s been wonderful. I set up a little server for friends and family, and I love that it lets people like me who don’t have as much self-hosting experience to get started quickly.
Has anyone here tried it?
Haven’t tried it, but it does look interesting and worth checking out.
I have been playing around with dietpi lately, and while it feels weird to relinquish control, it does make a lot of things much more easier and faster to setup and maintain. Or at least until you need more specific setups. :P
I haven’t used it that long but it seems like I do have the control if I want to! Like for example I configured rspamd to obfuscate IP addresses in the logs (other people use this server so I don’t want to see the subjects of their emails), and I also installed plugins for Roundcube as well to enable sieve filtering. I’m inexperienced though perhaps you’re referring to something else when it comes to control?

How does it compare to yunohost?

Haven’t tried yunohost unfortunately I think I chose FreedomBox because it was built-in with Debian. Do you use yunohost yourself?
