Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Dockhand can search for updates but you have to install them manually. Which I prefer anyway, plus Dockhand also replaced Portainer/Komodo for me.
In the same boat but with Arcane
Even better, Dockhand can send notifications when updates are available. I used to be a Watchtower user with nightly updates until one of my services became unavailable the next day due to a breaking change. Now I look at the update notification and apply manually through Dockhand after reviewing to make sure the update is good. Dockhand also can run Gripe and/or Trivy vulnerability scans on new images so you know approximately how many CVEs you’re adding to your network with each new or updated container! 🤣 I liked Portainer a lot but have grown to like Dockhand a lot. I’m having some issues with updates and vulnerability scanning on Hawser nodes so I’ve also tried Komodo and Arcane. Not sure which I’ll end up with long-term, but Dockhand is my favorite overall. What’s your opinion on these tools? Have you run into any issues with Dockhand?
I haven't tried Arcane. I prefer Komodo's interface over Portainer but Portainer worked better for me. I was running Portainer and Dockpeek for updates but Dockhand has replaced both, and IMO the interface is even better than Komodo's. I'm still learning, there are features I don't know much about like stack management, which I still do manually.
You have en option to install them automatically in the settings or per container
Good to know. Personally I prefer to review the changelogs before updating, though.
