I think we need more than tutorials. The actual software is just harder to host than it needs to be. What we need is some kind of standard where a tool can just automatically plug it in to the stack, start up the docker container, route nginx in, setup certificates automatically, set up SSO automatically in a standard way, Backup the data in a standard way, etc.

These 1 click install services like yuno host achieve it through huge amounts of work per app and patches over upstream.

Problem is its a monster of a job that requires upstream projects to be onboard and ultimately most of these tools are meant for enterprises to run who just have a dedicated ops person so complexity and maintenance are less of an issue.
