Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
dockcheck
- Should I be using a unified Docker-Compose.yml?

PSA - Run "docker image prune" once in a while.
As someone who knows just enough about Docker to be able to scratch together a docker-compose.yml every now and again only to promptly forget all the commands I need to ever maintain them going forward, I'm eternally grateful that dockcheck.sh prompts me to do this as a final step whenever I run it.

How to safely update the docker to latest?
I’m a simple man. I upgrade everything via dockcheck, verify that everything still works, and if not restore from backup!

Portainer kind of screwed me after updating a container -- Any other alternatives to managing your containers?
And I've personally made a script to selectively auto-update containers, or just check status. With the option to filter or exclude specific containers. Find the project here: mag37/dockcheck

Update containers/images to latest version in Docker Desktop (windows)
To "mass-check and mass-update" containers from the commandline, dockcheck is very light and useful. A simple dockcheck.sh -a -p for example would check all deployed containers for image updates and if there are any, pull them, then restart the container and at the end, cleanup unused images to free up diskspace. There is also a version with a web interface, DCW.

Jellyfin: Critical remote code execution vulnerability in versions before 10.8.10
I haven’t gone the watchtower route, since I’d prefer to review changes myself (or let’s be honest - others’ reactions to the changes). Instead. I’ve been using a combo of diun and dockcheck (https://github.com/mag37/dockcheck ). Diun lets me know when containers have changed and dockcheck lets me cherry pick what I upgrade.

Watchtower: understand which containers have problem from the log
If you want to update images, try dockcheck or DCW.

Lazydocker
This does remind me of ctop as well: https://github.com/bcicen/ctop
It also let's you look at containers, resource usage graphs, their logs and even do some actions through a TUI.

- Ctop – Top-like interface for container metrics

Found an amazingly handy terminal UI for both docker and docker-compose. Have actually just added the bin to my git repo with all my compose files. Great for a quick look at what is going on host machines.
My problem with ctop is, that it seems to show wrong memory usage data: https://github.com/bcicen/ctop/issues/314

Portainer Alternatives?
When talk about interface and cli... I am a huge fan of ctop

What do you think about Portainer?
You can use CTOP. It's like a lite portainer on CLI. You can check logs, stats, restart containers.

Docker 2.0 went from $11M to $135M in 2 years
> I tried portainer, awful UX experience and all good features are inside paid version.
This is interesting to me, because it doesn't quite match my experience - I've been using Portainer for around 3 years at this point and it's been pretty decent.
The worst issues that I've gotten is networking issues in some hybrid configurations with Docker Swarm (e.g. Portainer cannot reach the manager node of the cluster for a bit), or troubles configuring Traefik ingresses when managing Kubernetes (though I think the recent patch notes talked about improving the ingress section, so maybe the experience will get better with non-Nginx ingresses).
Other than that, it's been great for onboarding new people, illustrating the cluster state at a glance, easily operating with stacks and scaling/restarting services as needed, including pulling new images, viewing the logs or even connecting to containers through a web UI if need be. The webhook functionality in particular is really nice - you can just do a curl request against a given URL and that will pull the new container versions for the given image and do a redeploy, which works nicely with a variety of CI solutions.
When I last tried, initializing Nomad clusters with networking encryption was a bit less of a smooth experience (needing to essentially manage your own PKI) and the web UI felt more like a dashboard, instead of something that you could click around in, if you're a proponent of that workflow.
Rancher is probably better than both of those options, though there's a certain overhead in regards to running both that software and a full Kubernetes cluster. If Kubernetes feels like a good fit for a particular project and resources aren't an issue, definitely check it out! You can, of course, also have some success with lightweight clusters, like K3s: https://k3s.io/
I'll definitely agree that Lazydocker is a nice tool, but I wouldn't call it superior, just different (TUI vs GUI), their demo video is nice though: https://youtu.be/NICqQPxwJWw
It actually reminds me of ctop, which you might also want to check out, though it's not something that you'd manage clusters in, merely the individual containers on a node (which won't always be enough, same as Docker Compose isn't): https://github.com/bcicen/ctop
Regardless, for Kubernetes, I'm inclined to say that you'd enjoy k9s a bunch then, it has a similar TUI approach: https://k9scli.io/
