  • There’s plenty of tutorials out there for it. A quick DuckDuckGo search turned up this as one of the first results, but the theory is the same if you wanted to bundle ‘arr containers instead of nginx/whatever. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/workflow-multiple-containers-docker-compose

    Essentially you create docker compose file for services, within which you have as many containers as you want set up like you would any other compose file. You ‘docker compose pull’ and ‘docker compose up -d’ to update/install just like you would for individual docker container, but it does them all together. It sounds like others in the thread have more automated someone with services dedicated to watching for updates and running those automatically but I just look for a flag in the app saying there’s an update available and pull/ up -d whenever it’s convenient/I realize there’s an update.










  • You don’t seem to really understand the word enshitification. It’s not just “things getting shittier” - it refers specifically to the capitalist pressures that are exerted on private platforms and services that need to chase investor capital to scale and survive. The reason enshitification happens is because they are operating under a model that needs to first entice users with a high value product that is subsidized by venture capital, but that when that dries up the pressures come first to appease the investors at the expense of the users and then the owners at the expense of the investors. Fediverse for all its croaks and groans in these early stages is specifically designed to be decentralized and scalable by small clusters of users. It’s user owned and managed. When one cluster shows signs of degrading, you can move to another. I’m bullish on fediverse and decentralized platforms like this on being that solution and it’s not clear yet that they suffer the same inevitable enshitification that legacy platforms do.










  • Eh, personally I just found NPM super easy to set up and manage, especially when it came to setting up letsencrypt etc. Everything just works. Easy to update, easy to manage, easy to take down and spin back up again. My OP had a bit of snark though, I’m not exactly an expert, I’m sure there are very good reasons why the OP and other smart nerds on this community may disagree
