IMHO with docker and containerization in general you are trading drive space for consistency and relative simplicity.

a hypothetical:
You set up your mumble server and it requires the leftpad 3.7 package to run. you install it and everything is fine.
Now you install your ftp server but it needs leftpad 5.5. what do you do? hope the function that mumble uses in 3.7 still exists in 5.5? run each app in its own venv?

Docker and containerization resolve this by running each app in its own mini virtual machine. A container running mumble and leftpad 3.7 can coexist on host that also has a container running a ftp server with leftpad 5.5.

Here is a good video on what hole docker and containerization looks to fill

Being the weirdo I am I have 2 things I use.

WinSCP to get that classic FTP look of file transfers and VS Code when working on smaller compose files.

cloudflare tunnel?

Stick the cloudflare container in a docker network with other services you wish to expose for access.

as long as it is something simple they work fine.

But compare their price to some 1L mini PCs on the second hand market. you will get a lot more guts at around the same price.

What are your electricity prices that 30w costs €5/m

Do you have the same hangup of 7zip being from Russia?

Yea, we do…

For home have a crack at KVM with front ends like proxmox or canonical lxd manager.

In an enterprise environment take a look at Hyper-V or if you think you need hyper converged look at Nutanix.

No, oh god no. What you are talking about can arguably be classified as Shadow IT and can get you into trouble depending on your orgs certifications.

If you have O365 that should entitle you to Outlook and use that instead or ask your org IT what alternatives they permit.

Downvote, Report it, and move on. Not much can be done from the user side.

How are you finding the AooStar R7? I have had my eye on it for a while but not much talk about it outside of YouTube reviews

Active Directory. Manages users, devices, and permissions.

Do keep in mind that they will turn off your instances with minimal warning if they need the compute resources for paying customers.

Currently Ubuntu server 22.04

Previous was ESXi

Next one will be Proxmox

On that second point use actual random port numbers. Don’t be like oh this webapp defaults to port 443, I’ll use 4443. You have 65000 ports to pick from. Maybe good to avoid any number that ends in a well known port too. 23,22,25,80,443,8080,8081

Pinhole is still a thing. If you want other options there is also adguard.

When the site stops 504ing I’ll give it a look see.

Tabs right?

I am a network engineer and I am learning it. I see it in the next step from the bare metal -> virtualisation evolution
