Now try migrating all your docker containers to podman.
Just did that last weekend. Nothing to do anymore. 😢
Did you do Quadlets?
Yes of course. Had to spend a couple of hours fixing permission related issues.
Don’t encourage me.
And then try turning on SELinux!
Have you already tried implementing an identity provider like Authentik, so you can add OIDC and ldap for all your services, while you are the only one that’s using them? 🤔
Hey my wife uses some of them too!
Behind a traefik reverse proxy with lets encrypt for ssl even though the services aren’t exposed to the internet?
To be fair a lot of apps don’t handle custom CAs like they should. Looking at you Home Assistant! 😠
Never run:
docker compose pull docker compose down docker compose up -dRight before the end of your day. Ask me how I know 😂
I test in my Homeproduction
If it’s stable, it’s not a lab.
That’s infrastructure.
Time to distro-hop!
That’s not a homelab, that’s a home server.
The comments in this thread have collectively created thousands of person-hours worth of work for us all…
Me to my lab.

Yeah, my home server was being a little too stable and I wasn’t really learning anything. So I switched from fedora to proxmox, now I’ve got a nixos vm I’m going to try to get all my services running in.
If logging is down and there’s no one around to log it, is it really down?
I wish it was stable
I had a drive die yesterday
Have you tried introducing unnecessary complexity?
If you know how your setup works, then that’s a great time for another project that breaks everything.
Saturday morning: “Incus and podman seem interesting. I bet I could swap everything over while the family is out this afternoon”
Sunday evening: “Dad, when will the lights work again?”
“Dad, when will the lights work again?
As soon as selinux decides I have permission.
Haha too right mate
Infrastructure diagram? No! In this homelab we refer to the infrastructure hyperdodecahedron.
Going into spring/summer that’s ideal, I wanna go places do things. Mid winter, I’m feature creeping till something breaks.
Let’s tinker around and accidentally break something.
“Damn, I’ve got this Debian server shit down. I wonder how an opensuse server would work out”
*installs tumbleweed*
True story
and debug it until you have to reinstall your entire stack from scarch
Are you implying it’s possible to debug without having to reinstall from scratch? Preposterous! 😂
GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!
