Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Can you elaborate on what you found lacking in kasm? Because afaik, kasm is one of the best solutions for this, giving you a full desktop session inside a docker container.
With my test experience now your 100% right. can i store permanent data in the ubuntu vm there and install my own software permanent?
You want webtop: https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-webtop
But just like with kasm, not all software will work, although I think most will.
About kasm:
Not really. I don't thing the default kasm images come with sudo or a root password, so you cant "sudo apt" or the like.
If you do create a software image with sudo, them yes, but only for a single session, if you keep it long running. Every time you destroy the session completely it will be reset.
Although, If you need software in your images, it's better to just build your own docker images for use with kasm, that have everything you want.
