▲ 153 ▼ Those who are hosting on bare metal: What is stopping you from using Containers or VM's? What are you self hosting? (lemmy.world) submitted 1 year ago by kiol@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world 171 comments fedilink hide all child comments Curious to know what the experiences are for those who are sticking to bare metal. Would like to better understand what keeps such admins from migrating to containers, Docker, Podman, Virtual Machines, etc. What keeps you on bare metal in 2025?

Running two different node applications on bare metal, they can still disagree about the node version, etc. The actual old-school bloat-free way to do it is shared libraries of course. And that shit sucks. permalink fedilink source parent
