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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

This looks a lot more complicated that Watchtower. Is this something different or add other functionality?

I'm not familiar with Watchtower, I assume it will restart the container/stack if a new image is found. The biggest difference is that an edit to the git repo causing the container to be redeployed. This means the git repo becomes the source of truth and its possible to redeploy even when config changes get merged.
