I never understood how to use Docker, what makes it so special? I would really like to use it on my Rapsberry Pi 3 Model B+ to ease the setup process of selfhosting different things.
I’m currently running these things without Docker:
- Mumble server with a Discord bridge and a music bot
- Maubot, a plugin-based Matrix bot
- FTP server
- Two Discord Music bots
All of these things are running as systemd services in the background. Should I change this? A lot of the things I’m hosting offer Docker images.
It would also be great if someone could give me a quick-start guide for Docker. Thanks in advance!
It’s great for my needs. If you think about picking one up today, I wouldn’t really recommend it. It just offers too little resources to be actually viable in the regular day. I use mine because I had it laying in the dust for a couple of years. Well, it’s enough for my Mumble server and the bots I use for Discord and Matrix.
