Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I never said I was relying on it alone. Not sure why you think that.
That's a great link. Thank you for sharing. It's good that docker supports this functionality now.
I think you're interpreting too much. Security is about layers and making it harder for attackers, and that's exactly what using a non-root user does.
In that scenario, the attacker needs to find and exploit another vulnerability to gain root access, which takes time - time which the attacker might not be willing to spend and time which you can use to respond.
Funny how you claim to know so much about security but can't even seem to comprehend my comment. I know root shell exploits exist, that's why I wrote that it takes additional time to get root access, not that it's impossible. And that's still a security improvement because it's an additional hurdle for the adversary.
the person you are replying to either lacks comprehension or maybe just wants to be argumentative and doesn't want to comprehend.
Once again, you're going off on an unrelated tangent. If you don't want to listen, I can't help you. We're done here.
