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.

If you go by definition, I agree with you, but the definition is not always the thing to go off of.
Is docker virtualized or otherwise emulating something? It's just a way to package things, like an installer? Then it's bare metal.
I had to look this up too, I thought docker containers were virtualized.
"I used the wrong words but I feel like justifying them as right."
This is that whole "I know literally means literally the opposite of what I meant but deal with it" bullshit. Whatever, I'll not argue with such lunacy. Words mean whatever you want them to.
Words evolve, and sometimes, they gain new meanings. "Bare metal" is not a scientific terms, and so it can be bent depending on the context.
You can either accept that or not, it doesn't change the fact that that's what it now can mean.
He look - I drive a car with a V8! I mean I know it only has 4 cylinders in-line but I count them twice and I like the letter "V" so in this specific context it's a V8!
