That’s only with Sync. But the notes are just markdown, so you can also just use GitHub or whatever to sync them. They never need to hit Obsidian’s servers, and that’s actually the default because you have to pay for Sync.

That’s actually a big negative compared to Obsidian. It’s just a bunch of markdown files in a folder, so you can sync them using e.g. git and manage conflicts that way

How does this differ from Obsidian?

An the issue is only inside the network? I’d complain to IT about that, yeah. Maybe they are overriding the DNS record with their own DNS server or something.

Can you set your own DNS servers on your client devices? Does cloudflare or quad9 resolve it?

Do you have a static IP? If not, have you tried some kind of dynamic DNS like DuckDNS?

This is true. However many big maintained public images are multi-arch so down for ARM, and the fact that Docker runs in a VM on Windows and OSX when you install it doesn’t matter to most people. On Linux indeed it reuses the host’s kernel (which is why containers can be a lot lighter than VMs)

It’s not NAS specific, it’s platform independent - that’s the whole point. You have an application you want to run, and you package it all up into a docker image which contains not only the application but it’s dependencies and their dependencies all the way down to the OS. That way you don’t need to worry about installing things (because the container already has the application installed), all you have to do is allocate some resources to the container and it’s guaranteed* to work

*nothing is ever as simple as it first appears

One area where this is really helpful is in horizontally scaling workloads like web servers. If you get a bunch more traffic, you just spin up a bunch more containers from your server image on whatever hardware you have laying around, and route some of the traffic to the new servers. All the servers are guaranteed to be the same so it doesn’t matter which one serves the request. This is the thing kubernetes is very good at.

Edit: see caveats below

This is definitely a job for templating, seems you’ve got the right tool to me!

So far I just hand roll my docker-compose (at home, anyway). However, docker-compose does also support overrides via yaml merging, maybe that’s worth looking into?

My idea with that is to have a base compose that configures also my services and then to have a few override yamls with environment specific stuff (like prod, local, …)

This is similar to Kustomize from kubernetes land which I’ve worked with in the past

Yep, k8s is for people who need regular capacity scaling and high availability. Self hosting images is a static website, perfect for an S3 bucket or similar
