One of those technologies where I'm like "This isn't for me, but I'm glad this exists".
Anything that makes Linux administration more approachable is a good thing- especially for developers or other IT who work around linux but don't swim in it daily.

I also love Cockpit, but I just use it when I need to restart something on the couch with my phone!

Eh… if I could actually use btrfs or zfs (which won’t ever happen. Or maybe if it could manage docker or actually create Podman containers that start when the system does. It’s kinda useless tbh.

Cockpit is nice if you are new to Linux and need a UI to do things. However, its not really what I would recommend to manage Linux servers

Perfect for the starter home lab then! Brb off to check out and possibly install a thing.

You would be better off with using Ansible

Cockpit is an incredible tool for when I’m on PTO and someone calls me in a panic. The Windows team hates anything CLI, so the rare times I needed them to do anything on one of my boxes…man if I can get them into Cockpit, it’s so much easier.

Yeah I do prefer terminal but I just wanted to manage VM's and Lord o mighty cockpit gave me the smoothest experience creating a vm and installing the distro on it. Broham A+ for me
