truecharts VS pms-wiki

I don't think there is an "alternative GUI" but there is community app catalog that integrates into the standard GUI called TrueCharts

Nextcloud - Our Nextcloud chart has been nearly completely reworked, it's incredibly fast and users will notice the difference. The goal of this rework has been to improve the speed and stability. It’s getting the chart as close to feature parity as Nextcloud AIO as possible, includes the hpb and imaginary containers. Remember this may be a breaking change based on your install.

WG-Easy - The easiest way to run WireGuard VPN + Web-based Admin UI.

It's known about - https://github.com/truecharts/apps/issues/2984 And there's a fix - https://github.com/truecharts/containers/pull/3506

You can also use "true charts" https://truecharts.org/

First Thing i would do is add truecharts https://truecharts.org/ It's a Community catalogue of prebuild Apps, Go through their quick Start guides. They also have a YouTube Channel with Video Guides on how to setup qbittorrent and vpn for Container https://youtube.com/c/TrueCharts

Heres the link to there org

truecharts catalog is a list of compiled docker/kubernete apps specifically compiled for the OS... You can find more info here

Here's a link to some info on their out-of-the-box support for cloud-sync'd storage. Their "container station" equivalent would be their app store. They have a model of 1)"tiny collection of core essentials" plus support for 2)arbitrary user-configured containers and 3)3rd party app store catalogs full of the broad universe of various 3rd party containers.

If you want a fully open and free solution, https://perfectmediaserver.com should do the trick.

Alex Kretzschmar from Jupiter Broadcast (Linux Action news, Linux Unplugged, Self Hosted) used to maintain https://perfectmediaserver.com/ as a guide to do this.

I am creating a list of parts for building multi-purpose server that will be running Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 as I am relatively new to Linux and a GUI will ease me into the structure OS as become more familiar with the CLI. Also, I am using perfectmediaserver.com as a general guide. For some context, I also have a gaming PC with some older parts I may donate to the server build. Specifically, I am considering possibly transferring:

Have you looked at the resources here, https://perfectmediaserver.com/

I myself prescribe to the teachings of the IronicBadger(Alex Kretzshmar) from the Self-Hosted podcast and (when I get one setup) intend to follow the guides on his site https://perfectmediaserver.com and use mergerfs to turn a JBOD to a single filesystem and use SnapRAID for redundancy.

I went with this guide https://perfectmediaserver.com/

Trashguides and Perfect Media Server have great setup guides and linuxserver.io has all the docker-compose templates. Good luck!

It's supposed to be a "Perfect Media Server"/NAS/Router/Smart Home Hub/Hypervisor in a Small Form Factor footprint. I want to combine as many appliances as possible into one. Single point of failure is okay, I use the network alone, only I will suffer if any of the services (including Internet) goes down ;). I value less power consumption (0,35€/kWh...) over redundancy currently.

Are there any good tutorials? I’ve read the Perfect Media Server (PMS) series but it’s not that thorough.
