Curious if anyone is using CasaOS?

If so, what made you choose this over another?

    I have been using for about 4 months or so. I like it over unraid which I was using since I dont have to use a flash drive to boot off of. I do miss the app store that unraid has but I know I can just a the docker template but I am lazy

    I use it as a landing page for most of my other apps. Its running on my Ubuntu server PC. I have Plex running baremetal. I am thinking about slowly moving smaller services Radarr, Sonarr, etc to the CasaOS docker containers.

    I thought about taking a look at it. Then I discovered the site is a single page of fluff and the documentation is nonexistent, so I didn’t bother.

      exactly my thought. Plenty of shiny things but then you don’t even have a good way to partition disks

    I’ve used it. More just so I had a “landing page” on my NAS and pretend what it would be like to have a web GUI on a NAS

    It’s OK. It doesn’t handle RAID, ZFS, or anything other than just a MergerFS setup or single disks.

    I like the built in file browser, as it offers SMB sharing with just a right click on a folder. Handy for those times where you just need a quick SMB share for a bit.

      i don’t like the built in file browser. you can’t drag and drop, no dark mode and you can’t view properties.
