There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15 containers and people not wanting to turn the post into a container measuring contest.
But now I am curious, what are your counts? I would guess those of you running k*s would win out by pod scaling
docker ps | wc -l
For those wanting a quick count.
You must log in or # to comment.
- Because I’m old, crusty, and prefer software deployments in a similar manner.
I salute you and wish you the best in never having a dependency conflict.
I’ve been resolving them since the late 90s, no worries.
I use Debian
My worst dependency conflict was a libcurlssl error when trying to build on a precompiled base docker image.
Me too!
I am like Oprah yelling “you get a container, you get a container, Containers!!!” At my executables.
I create aliases using toolbox so I can run most utils easily and securely.
Toolbox?
Edit: Oh cool! Thanks for sharing.
https://github.com/containers/toolbox
Podman toolboxes, which layer a do gained over your user file system, allowing you to make toolbox specific changes to the system that only affect that toolbox.
I think it’s oringinally meant for development of desktop environments and OS features, but you can put most command line apps in them without much feauture breakage.
Zero. Either it’s just a service with no wrappers, or a full VM.
Why a full VM, that seems like a ton of overhead
For some convoluted networking things it’s easier for me to have a full “machine” as it were
59 according to
docker info.Hot damn. That is a far better way then counting the lines from docker ps
Hot damn
That literally got a snort, because I feel the same way when I find a much easier/cleaner way of doing something.
Exactly!
How it started : 0
Max : 0
Now : 0
Iso27002 and provenance validation goes brrrrr
I still haven’t figured out containers. 🙁
How come? What do you use to run them and what is it you have a hard time with?
I’m using docker. Tried to set up Jellyfin in one but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to get it to work, even following the official documentation. Ended up just running the jellyfin package from my distros repo, which worked fine for me. Also tried running a tor snowflake, which worked, but there was some issue with the NAS being restricted and I couldn’t figure out how to fix that. I kinda gave up at that point and saved the whole container thing to figure out another day. I only switched to Linux and started self-hosting last year, so I’m still pretty new to all of this.
If you do decide to look in to containers again and get stuck please make a post. We are glad to help out. A tip I can give you when asking for help. Tell the system you are using and how. Docker with compose files or portainer or something else etc. If using compose also add the yaml file you are using.
I will definitely try again at some point in the next year, so I will keep that in mind! I appreciate the kind words. A lot of what you said is over my head at the moment though, so I’ve got my work cut out for me. 😅
Yo, I finally got it figured out. 😂 Set up Navidrome last night, and just finished setting up Jellyfin. Appreciate the encouragement. ✌
I’m pretty sure I was at the same point years ago. The good thing is, next time you look into containers it’ll likely be really easy and you’ll wonder where you got stuck a year or two ago.
At least that’s what has happened to me more times than I can remember.
You were totally right. Got Navidrome set up last night, and just finished setting up Jellyfin. There were a few places I was scratching my head (the official documentation for both those isn’t great if you don’t already know how docker works) but I worked through it and now they’re both up and running great! Appreciate the kind words!
Haha, fingers crossed.
40 containers behind traefik, but I did just add a new sablier middleware to stop when iddle and start when first requested. Electricity is not cheap for me. But i got lucky to add 64GB RAM in my NAS and 128GB Ram in Desktop last march before prices went crazy

Would you mind expounding on this? Electricity is fairly affordable in my locale, however I’ve been on a mission to cut out consumption when it’s not needed. Have you noticed an ROI?
yes as most service sleep, and time to spin them up is fast. Moreover some services continuously poll folders and avoid disks to sleep. Letting disks sleep the whole night is a good idea if not in use, this won’t shorten their lifespan.
In here it is .30 pro Kwh

Ouch!
I wouldn’t expect it to matter much, idle processes are pretty cheap.
yes and no…
- Idle process are not cheap: some processes avoid all disks to sleep. .
- In Europe electricity is not cheap, a bit more than .30 euro/kwh
Here’s what I’ve been doing: https://lemmy.world/post/42332816/21852448
I’ll check out sablier. Every little bit helps. Even tho it’s selfhosting, there’s no need to consume more than necessary.
What I’ve been doing is running a cron at a certain time in the evening, shutting down the server, and am working on a WOL sequence from my pfsense box fired by a cron, to crank it back up. Since it sits idle for 12 hours out of the 24, I just didn’t see a need to keep it sucking up electricity.
Of course, I’m not running any midnight, mass downloads of Linux iso’s, and I have no other users save myself. If I had users, I’d pass the hat.
11 running on my little N150 box. Barely ever breaks a sweat.
At my house around 10-15. For lemmy.ca and our other sites, 35ish maybe. At work… hundreds.
There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15
I made the comment ‘Just 15’ in jest. It doesn’t matter to me. Run 1, run 100. The comment was just poking the bear as it were. No harm nor foul intended. Sorry if it was received differently.

64 containers in total, 60 running - the remaining 4 are Watchtowers that I run manually whenever I feel like it (and have time to fix things if something should break).
What tool is that screenshot from?
9 containers of which 1 is container manager with 8 containers inside (multi-containers counted as 1). And 9 that are installed off the NAS app store. 18 total.
None, if it’s not in a Debian repo I don’t deploy it on my stable server.
It’s not really about docker itself, I just don’t think software has married enough if it’s not packaged properly
49, I could imagine running all of those bare would be hard with dependencies
