Okay #Plesk, I’m breaking up with you.
When I was new to #SysAdmin stuff, #Plesk helped me a lot with setting things up, especially email. But this is just stupid. I’m already paying for a server package that comes with Plesk, but it can’t administer #PostgreSQL?
Fuck that. I’m leaving.
Any #OpenSource #FOSS alternatives? (Don’t you dare to say #Docker 😠)

Why not docker? Docker is great?

@fell @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social i don’t know for sure if #podman is foss but i know it is an alternative to Docker.
Yep podman is FOSS. It was developed by redhat originally, which might be concerning to some given the recent news about RHEL, but that’s probably not relevant. Use it for homeassistant, etc and it can be less ready-out-the-box than normal docker but works well on the whole. Mind you if you have an issue with docker-the-system rather than any docker.io controversy, then it probably isn’t for you either.
You mean now you need to pay for using the plesk software too?!?
Hestia is decent.
But since I don’t want to host email or DNS, I just ended up setting up nginx and php with a database from scratch, I find it easier to manage that way since it’s fairly simple and I know more about what’s going on inside.

#Podman ?
Ok, sorry. Try https://www.pgadmin.org/. You’ll still have to run the database yourself before you can administer it with pgAdmin, tho. So get used to apt/yum/dnf/docker/podman/etc.

Thanks, but what I really meant was something for the entire server like Plesk was. I’ll definitely take a look at pgAdmin, but I mainly need something that takes the pain out of E-Mail server configuration. And of course, some Web and Database stuff would be nice. I used to use ISPConfig a few years ago, I wonder if it has improved. 🤔
@fell @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social Ah, ok. In this case, take a look at Yunohost: https://yunohost.org/
It can install and manage all sorts of things.
@nerdeiro @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social
Riiiiight! I forgot about that! I’ll definitely try that. But I’ll need another provider as mine only offers Ubuntu or CentOS I believe.
But I was thinking of just buying a VPS for the static IP and then tunneling everything to my living room anyways, this way I could use my own hardware.
@fell @nerdeiro @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social
If it doesn’t conflict with your values, Cloudflare tunnel would get you something similar to the “tunnel through a VPS node” strategy at a lower cost.
@blbecker @nerdeiro @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social
It does conflict with my values :)
But depending on how cheap it is, I might be willing to… bend them. Thanks for the tip.
