Coolify unfortunately didn't click with me, and I had a bad experience with a Redis database, so I stopped using it. I would recommend Elestio (eles[dot]io) as an alternative which isn't open source, or self-hostable, but met my primary goal of drastically reducing cloud costs. And you can bring your own cloud/server, though I'm choosing to also rent from Hetzner through Elestio. I'm running two redis databases on ma…
Coolify is cool, pun intended, but a bit clunky (maybe due to the PHP nature of it), I recommend Dokploy these days.
So I came to the conclusion that if I have to dig through abstractions built by someone else, only to find out that in the end I have to manually restart the underlying containers anyway, I might as well stick to using Docker directly.
And truth be told, it’s not even that difficult to handle it all yourself. And it’s definitely very educational. It gives me a nice feeling of being in control and knowing my server. And on top of that it’s fun too.
Anyone know how this compares to caprover?

He did not say "companies vs individuals", he said "single maintainer", which is obviously a high risk factor to consider IMHO. I wonder why they all start their own projects instead of putting their heads together. They could achieve so much more and make a bit more money on the side, while each of them would have to spend less time on it. It would also attract risk-averse companies.
This project is amazing! I been messing with it all day today, I'm in love. Thank you to the developers, you really have a keen eye for detail.
