☁️ The Most Secure and Easy Selfhosted Home Server. Take control of your data and privacy without sacrificing security and stability (Authentication, anti-DDOS, anti-bot) - GitHub - azukaar/Cosmos...
I tried it 3 months ago. It looked nice had some cool features, but It didn’t fit into my personal selfhosted Home server.
This is more or like to help less-tech savy people to secure their infrastructure, which is a good point, but can’t replace a complex wireguard, VPN, opnsense, 2FA , self-signed CA, docker installation.
It’s a bit like Nginx proxy manager, it’s good enough, does what it is suposed to do with minimal user inputs. Less prone to error, security issues…
There must be a term for middle-ground people like me. I’ve used computers my whole life, as a kid I portfowarded to host WC3 servers, as a teenager I self-hosted minecraft servers both on my pc and rented linux servers. I’m a software developer and I’ve dabbled in dozens of technologies and have a decent understanding of so many computer/IT related things that most people don’t even know exists.
I’m trying to say I think I’m a tech wizard but putting me in the “less tech savvy” bucket with my mom feels weird. Self hosting was a nightmare to get setup. There’s just too much shit to learn and when all you want is a Sonarr/radarr/jellyfin setup you’re just figure out the important details and get the damn thing working before you forget it all.
I like having all the customization available to me but I only want to learn details that are relevant to what I’m trying to do. It’s like game developers using Unity instead of writing their own physics engine. Yeah sure I could study real hard and painstakingly implement my own engine but it’s going to take fucking forever and there will be ever-present hidden issues plaguing me as I make the part of the game I actually care about.
A power user is a user of computers, software and other electronic devices, who uses advanced features of computer hardware,[1][2][3] operating systems,[4] programs, or websites[5] which are not used by the average user. A power user might not have extensive technical knowledge of the systems they use[6] but is rather characterized by competence or desire to make the most intensive use of computer programs or systems.
After getting burnt on the unRAID license change and the restriction on security updates, I figured there had to be a simple os that I can essentially set, forget, and easily update when I need, which also uses SnapRAID. I might just try this out.

Exactly! I am that kind of user. It fits my needs perfectly, where CasaOS falls very short.
