I was using webmin, but since my last server died and I’m making a new one, I decided I’d look into something different, personally I liked webmin but didn’t use most of its functionality and felt a little clunky for my basic use. I’ve also testran casaos but felt weirdly limited and couldn’t smoothly migrate docker containers to interact with its interface.
I can do with just the terminal, but it’s nice having a gui that I can glance at my phone and quickly do stuff like update and reboot.
I personally haven’t seen or found much conversation into the topic so I figured I’d ask and see what you peeps use and why.
one thing i really really hate is videos/screenshots of instructions. I just want to read text damn it! i can only imagine how much more frustrating it is being visually impaired.
@osanna Especially when you have commands. I was born with commands as I used ms-dos at the beginning of 90s. But now, I honestly prefer something semi-automated for the “dirty” activities, as for configuration files it’s very difficult to find the issue if you have a conf file made of dozens of lines, a long serie of indentations, punctuation signs and apostrophes everywhere, just forget one and you are screwed.
I’m not saying it’s impossible, I’m saying that this can take double time of work, than an ordinary sighted administrator. I’m somehow envious of those who create a self-host platform on their very own, starting from a blank page.
