Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You're welcome to make whatever bad decisions you like. I can manage snaps with standard tooling. I can install, update, remove them with simple ansible scripts in a standard way.
Bash installers are bad. End of.
Canonical's snap use a proprietary backend, and comes at a risk of vendor lock in to their ecosystem.
The bash installer is fully open source.
You can make the bad decision of locking yourself into a closed ecosystem, but many sensible people recognize that snap is "of the devil" for a good reason.
You've made this about snap. Flatpak, rpm, deb, etc. all work too.
Except k3s does not provide a deb, a flatpak, or a rpm.
Ah - you have discovered my complaint.
That is precisely why I went with microk8s instead. I don't install software from people who can't be bothered to package their software using standard deployment tools which has been the correct way to distribute Linux software for decades.
