You have absolutely hit the nail on the head.

My view is this:

There is a myriad of amazing toolage out there that the everyday person could greatly benefit from in their day-to-day life. A lot of that has a very high barrier to entry for technical knowledge. By simplifying this setup down to a simple Docker compose file I believe that I have allowed the lay person to play and experiment in the freedom of their own home with technology they may have otherwise been eyeing.



I completely agree and want to add that the readme file does a good job of letting me know what this thing is and why I should use it. I really appreciate when developers take the time to be inclusive by writing for a less technical audience. I will at least try it out and see what it is all about. I have been looking to add more services to my pihole.


Let me know if you need help. My Twitter is on the repo.
