Cool! What makes you prefer this to portainer?
I like the fact that there isn't a distinction between the community edition and the business edition. Its all the same thing for Komodo, whereas I felt like Portainer had a bunc hof random things locked away behind the "Business Edition" and that just rubbed me the wrong way. If I'm self hosting something, I feel like I should be able to access all portions of it.
The GUI is a little different but once you're used to it, I feel like it makes more sense for the most part. It has a nice way to connect other machines, so I can monitor all of the different machines in my network that are hosting things. I also wanted to mess around with some of the automation features, but I haven't had as much time to dick around with that as I would like. I also wanted to start doing stuff from a personal Forgejo, and it was super easy to integrate. (No idea how easy it is on Portainer, as I had already jumped ship at that point)
Sounds like a Hassel
I edited my missing line break but I'm leaving this. Its too good.
