What do you use for your server administration? (piefed.social)

I was using webmin, but since my last server died and I'm making a new one, I decided I'd look into something different, personally I liked webmin but didn't use most of its functionality and felt a little clunky for my basic use. I've also testran casaos but felt weirdly limited and couldn't smoothly migrate docker containers to interact with its interface.

I can do with just the terminal, but it's nice having a gui that I can glance at my phone and quickly do stuff like update and reboot.

I personally haven't seen or found much conversation into the topic so I figured I'd ask and see what you peeps use and why.

I'm currently in the process of setting up my home server again but this was basically my setup before. Alpine Linux + SSH + Docker and I kept everything to a minimum.

This time I'm setting up rootless Podman in place of Docker and as of today the switch over is complete.

I'm thinking of trying to use wireguard as a way to secure my ssh port but I'm still trying to learn and figure out if that's possible.

With all the security and trust issues hitting the self-hosting headlines, less and simple is completely fine with me.
