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 had started out with CasaOS and ran it for a year or so. Last week, I took some time to move everything out of Casa's file structure and cleaned up the compose files.

For container management, I'm using Dockhand. It's been great.

Otherwise, like most others have said, SSH when I need to do more.
