      Cloudron is great and remains my primary self-hosting platform ("production").
      But trying to improve my understanding.

      I have another VPS running a set of Docker containers for stuff not packaged for Cloudron. All is well.

      I have yet another VPS which is 'spare' (retired the apps on it) but I am in contract for a while.
      I'm thinking to install sysbox from nestybox as a playground to try out other apps.

      Although I have read various stuff about sysbox use cases, I keep coming back to the thought : 'yeah, but I could do xxx in a regular Docker container on my Docker VPS'

      So what am I missing in my understanding of sysbox advantages ?

      Secondary question : assuming I go ahead and have bunch of sysbox containers running apps. How is inbound networking managed? Same as on my normal docker VPS - nginx with reverse proxy ? nginx doesn't seem to figure in the sysbox install how-to.

      Yeah, I know this is not about Cloudron, so 'off-topic' topic 😄

          @murgero yes, but @girish says not on roadmap.
          Because it's off-topic, it's not so much about cloudron.

            @timconsidine have you not visited their website?

            Networking is no different as they're still docker containers, now running the sysbox-runc runtime.

            All your questions and more are answered there 😏
