So I'm in the process of (re-) setting up my homelab and unsure about how to handle databases. Many images require a database, which the docker-compose usually provides inside the stack....
Mooching off this other post
Primary question: What do people do for their reverse proxies (and associated ACME clients)? Do you have a single unified one? Or do you use separate proxies for each stack? Or some mess in between?
My use case question: For example, I have a (mess that is a) Nextcloud instance with a separate stack with nginx and ACME, a SearXng that wants to run caddy (but has shoved into the nginx).
But now I have a Lemmy docker that has a custom(?) nginx instance, should I just port it to my existing nginx or run them side by side?
Podman is on my todo list! I like the ideas behind Podman and because I am already familiar with docker containers, I hope that I can transfer most of my stuff over almost pain free. But I heard the linuxserver.io images are unsupported on podman/rootless docker and might give me trouble. We’ll see!
On the other hand, I have recently fallen in love with NixOS and would love to consolidate on a common Nix config for all my servers, Raspberries and maybe eventually desktops. It’s the perfect time to try out podman!

I don’t know about pain-free. :D See my earlier post on the topic: https://lemmy.world/post/213870
But it might be worth it anyway depending on your needs! Trying out NixOS sounds cool though… I’ve been meaning to look into that.
