Moving from TrueNAS to Linux. Is it right move?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/selfhosted

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • jailmaker

    Persistent Linux 'jails' on TrueNAS SCALE to install software (docker-compose, portainer, podman, etc.) with full access to all files via bind mounts thanks to systemd-nspawn!

  • Personally, I just switched from Openmediavault to Truenas. Truenas handles storage much better. For docker apps I run a Debian jail, rather than a VM. Jails are more performant and easier to manage IMHO. This is what I used to create the jail: https://github.com/Jip-Hop/jailmaker

  • cockpit-hardware

    A cockpit module for 45Drives storage servers

  • You should have zero issues migrating a ZFS pool from TrueNAS to to Linux. I did a quick google for your plugin and it looks like you can still run it as a standalone app on Ubuntu. https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-hardware

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • multipass

    Multipass orchestrates virtual Ubuntu instances

  • For my selfhosted stuff, I use a combination of docker and multipass ( https://multipass.run/), Ubuntu.

  • pms-wiki

    The aim is to share knowledge and information about building an open-source media server.
