I've been doing a ton of testing.

So far it just magically works 🪄🎩🐰

TIL about "post_start" in Docker Compose 🐳

You can run commands as a privileged user on startup, but still run your services as an unprivileged user.

I've released my first Go application!

It's a (very basic) terminal video editor that uses ffmpeg and whisper to let you selectively choose which lines from a video you want to keep.

You can also preview each line with a pop-up video player!

Multi-host Docker without K8s or Swarm? I need to play around with this asap.

Uses Wireguard network + Caddy reverse proxy to handle traffic, all wrapped in a lightweight cli.
