Question for #selfhosters, which one do you generally prefer and why?

A) Containerize the service with e.g. Docker

B) Run the service directly on the host machine

I prefer using containers and docker-compose to configure it all.

Dockerfiles and docker-compose.yml force me to document what I had to do to get something working.

Compose probably turned 3 hours of work setting up my relay to 20 minutes. dB, relay, proxy. Glue the stuff together and done!
