I dunno why but I’m worried that casaos is holding me back from doing greater things I guess? I’m pretty new to self hosting and I discovered casaos from a Minecraft server setup tutorial of all things and it’s been great for me so far and does pretty much everything I need it to do, but I feel like I don’t really have a full understanding of what I can do outside of it, and I don’t really hear many people talk about casaos so I’m like worried it’s just not very good I guess? I’m just looking for ways to improve really.

For reference I just use my server for Minecraft on the occasion, a self hosted obsidian live sync, adguard, and in the future plan on hosting nextcloud. Casaos seems great for that and maybe it’s perfectly fine but I’d just be interested in being more knowledgeable I guess, and aware of any ways to improve.

    Disagree. There should be a few more questions as well:

    • if development stops, what are my alternatives and how hard is the migration process?
    • how responsive are the devs to patching vulnerabilities?
    • if I need more software down the line, how do I get it? What if it’s not in the repos?
    • how is the documentation and community? If something breaks, how likely am I to find a fix?

    Look beyond initial setup and think about what happens after a couple years.
