  • Yes, there’s always some sort of justification towards authoritarianism. The real solution is to fix underlying issues instead. For example, if there is a lot of theft, your social safety net has failed. Punishing people because they react to a problem without fixing the problem is how surveillance- and police states come to be.

    We should therefor not fall into spy cameras following our every move. We have to fight them now while they are not too normalized yet. Otherwise, even if underlying problems are fixed, they will still be there, and might get used for far more sinister reasons.

    Some good things to understand are the Boiling Frog Syndrome and Ratchet Effect.




  • You answer my question with a question… But I’ll answer it.

    Compose is meant for multi-container applications or development. It’s good for custom applications where you need to manage every service yourself so you mostly see them used for stuff like web stacks.

    Single container applications are much easier to run and manage for the end-user and most of the awesome-selfhosted apps are already served as single container images on the docker hub. There is absolutely no need to use compose for any of those because you are not managing every service of the app yourself.

    I have a big server with lots of containers running for apps. For example, I have a container for my blog, one for FreshRSS, and even one for Teamspeak. But I only use Compose for one application and that’s my own custom one. That one consists of an nginx container, php container, etc. I don’t need to dive into the different services of FreshRSS for example, but I do need to for my own custom app.
