There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15 containers and people not wanting to turn the post into a container measuring contest.
But now I am curious, what are your counts? I would guess those of you running k*s would win out by pod scaling
docker ps | wc -l
For those wanting a quick count.
I’m using docker. Tried to set up Jellyfin in one but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to get it to work, even following the official documentation. Ended up just running the jellyfin package from my distros repo, which worked fine for me. Also tried running a tor snowflake, which worked, but there was some issue with the NAS being restricted and I couldn’t figure out how to fix that. I kinda gave up at that point and saved the whole container thing to figure out another day. I only switched to Linux and started self-hosting last year, so I’m still pretty new to all of this.
I’m pretty sure I was at the same point years ago. The good thing is, next time you look into containers it’ll likely be really easy and you’ll wonder where you got stuck a year or two ago.
At least that’s what has happened to me more times than I can remember.
Haha, fingers crossed.
If you do decide to look in to containers again and get stuck please make a post. We are glad to help out. A tip I can give you when asking for help. Tell the system you are using and how. Docker with compose files or portainer or something else etc. If using compose also add the yaml file you are using.
I will definitely try again at some point in the next year, so I will keep that in mind! I appreciate the kind words. A lot of what you said is over my head at the moment though, so I’ve got my work cut out for me. 😅
