    there are few that i still haven't tried from your list. thanks for curating this docker container list!
  • @cbaxtermusic
    I recently containerized my home lab with Kubernebtes, I went with microk8s running HA and then I templated out my services with helm charts and used terraform to configure things how I like it, and I use ArgoCd for deploying my helm charts. My previous setup was ESXI hypervisor based with VMS. I do use proxmox to create my k8s nodes but now I'm fully containerized
  • @miken3d
    great video, excited to dive in!
  • @est89
    I am new to docker, I did not understand the benefit of using (by example) plex as docker container and not to install directly in the home server thanks for your advice.
  • @rzak1920
    I’d add Immich to the list, amazing photo app.
  • @emanuelpersson3168
    My IT dream right now is to get a K3s or Rancher setup running and mailrise is among the first i want to get up and running!
  • @marcoslanes
    Kasm is really awesome! In "media stream" apps, im trully impress with Jellyfin, im use a cople of months and dont disapointed. Nice review Brandon! Thanks as usual!

    How is your voice so perfect with all the background noise you must have in your room ? Legit question !
  • @ewenchan1239
    My open-webui Docker container failed to start properly via a LXC container. (Needed to try and run it through a LXC container as it is sharing a single RTX A2000 between at least 4 other LXC containers.) Plus, trying to get 100 Gbps Infiniband to play nicely with LXC containers and Docker containers has been a colossal pain. (SR-IOV had been enabled, but I haven't found a good/clean way to pass the SR-IOV VFs from the host to a LXC container, and then onto a Docker container.)
  • @louchitchat
    nice list of apps, I. will try some of them
  • @dibu28
    Deockge for spining up Docker compose containers
  • @TitoLukason
    i prefer Pihole in LXC, dunno why pihole on docker just doesn't catch me, seems like have more control, specially with unbind...
  • @sir.g.o
    Lol at Gittea pronunciation. GIT + Tea. Sounds like giddy
  • @GustavoMsTrashCan
    Personally I prefer nextdns over pihole and adguard home. It may be on the cloud (at least the most of it), but it has plenty of features that makes it up compared to its competitors.
  • @ScottBaker_
    From the FAQ for Gitea Gitea is pronounced /ɡɪ’ti:/ as in "gi-tea" with a hard g.
  • @uae7001
    In your opinion, which one is better for a superior blocking experience: Pi-hole or AdGuard Home?
