I feel like I just want to check out of society lately.
Charging money to run your own actions, what the fuck?
But the same thought goes with the new increased iOS ads, and just the general state of “now you’re locked in, let the gouging begin” phase of tech. I’m so fucking tired of it.
I know this is self hosted, but man I’m ready to start living in a cave.
Congrats to all the execs, you’ve completely ruined the tech industry.

No - I think they made it (involuntary) better by forcing people into looking into self hosting everything and taking control over their own infrastructure.
Part of the app resides on the GitHub infrastructure, where GitHub stores, processes and displays results. So their costs are not zero.
But GitHub could take a “tax the rich” approach to pricing by charging enterprise customers more for self-hostingand leave it free for others.
A lot of open source is funded like that— most funding for a project comes from a very few companies and everything else uses it free or for very low donations or costs.
don’t want that, don’t buy into anything coming out of silicon valley ever. that is their entire culture

:/ shit.
I’m pretty sure I saw this a few months ago and moved to the beatkind/watchtower fork, but it’s not been updated in 6mo either. (Devs only been active in private repos; so they’re still around, just not actively working on watchtower)
Guess I’ll find another solution. Hell, I might just put my own script on crontab. Looping through folders running docker compose down/pull/up isn’t too hard really.

My issue was that Watchtower would sporadically just fumble the update, making re-deployment sometimes necessary. It wasn’t a tag issue. At least none that I could see. Of course, the possibility exists that I could just very well be a dumbass. I just assumed that to be the Docker updates that have happened over the past year, and, without any new code, it just broke. There was a recent Docker/Portainer issue. It happens.
I either read somewhere or someone tipped me off to the fork. I can only speak for my network, but the fork did the trick. Have had zero issues, and I’ve been using it for a good while. Now, I notice that Watchtower fork hasn’t been updated in 6 months. I guess it’s either been abandoned again or there just hasn’t been a need to do so.
I’ve used it several months and can recommend it. No issues so far and seems to get regular updates for bugfixes and minor new features.

To be fair, any kind of automated system can just break. So many factors come into play. Azure build pipelines for instance just sometimes decide they can’t communicate with their own servers, causing a build failure.
Sure. It wasn’t a dig against OG Watchtower, it was just that it ceased to work correctly for me, and I sought other options. Whomever produces selfh.st does have a bit of sarcastic wit to his writing that I kind of like anyways. When speaking about GitHub, he threw out another zinger: ‘Cue the intense backlash from users who hate paying for things’. So, I just think it is his writing style. I didn’t get all hung up on it.

I guess that’s true.
This morning my very non techy wife was complaining all the AI shit on her computer was making it slow.
I looked over and Explorer was visibly lagging clicking in to a folder, on a system with an SSD and solid specs.
Essentially the definition of enshittification.

Switched awhile back, no issues.
Same. No issues.
Tugtainer is pretty nice, and has a webui.
That’s kind of a bullshit allegation. Watchtower did what it did, if you set it up to grab unstable tags, then too bad for you.

Someone linked this fork, seems maintained:

Hey thank you very much for the tip. I have bookmarked it. I feel better knowing it is going to be maintained.

As an alternative what’s up docker is quite good but a bit more complex to setup :).
I’m liking the simplicity of dockcheck
