Cool really useful feedback. I really like the SSO/LDAP user auth and perms and its cool that it includes email. Im not sure how that is going to go but hey lets find out eh?
I can see the downsides you mentioned and yeah I guess that I am going to run into them as I have more of the family using the instance.
Do you think we will end up with some kind of Yunohost / Coop.Cloud Hybrid where you fan start simple and then if you grow move to a containerised / multiple server environment?
I had sort of thought Coop Cloud was more about managing multiple customers ( but I can see architecturally it is also better able to scale for a single customer. it just feels a shame its a separate project rather than an extension/ evolution of Yunohost. (The BA in me asks could Yunohost be an application inside Coop Cloud to start )
If you're wanting to do something like that, you're probably best running Proxmox as a bit of a hypervisor, then Yunohost in a Debian VM on top, and assign something like "home.domain.tld" to Yunohost and get your "stable" family services running.
Then you can try out other stuff like Coop, Cosmos, OMV, Caprover, Tipi, etc as other VMs if you wanna try adding something Yunohost can't or doesn't do well. Or if you wanna extend your DevOps skills without messing up family-prod. I mean, you could even have another Yunohost as a "sandbox.domain.tld" before new service deploy.
Yeah Im running Yunohost on a free Oracle cloud instance at the moment and a test instance on Rbpi at home. Im also working on (for last five years) home networking across the family locations (five houses in three countries)
Im still trying to sort out DNS for stuff sitting behind Dynamic IP ( Think I have got DDNS working with Hetzner for my own domain name) so next step is Yunohost locally with proper domain names rather than .local
Sometimes I do struggle being able to create test environments without impacting what I have got running live.
Of course Im also trying to rennovate and create a proper server cabinet and networking in the basement with UPS.
Im sure Ill have this done shortly before they pronounce me dead. /s
Must look at Proxmox - Don't know anything about it.
