shuriky | 7 years ago | on: Show HN: Cloudron – Selfhosting made Simple. Instantly run 50+ ready-to-use apps
My journey stared with a decision to move away from Google for most of their services. I've looked at various platforms, services, applications that would automate email (at least) hosting and make it as simple as possible (I'm not really interested in learning the details of e-mail management). I've almost settled on either of 2 well known mail specific apps when I stumbled across Cloudron. It does have build-in support for multi domain email hosting and, in addition, really simplifies running a lot of other systems and platforms. And did I say it's literally just clicking a button to get an app running? Email is a bit harder - I think I had to add few values and point my MX records (that was the hardest bit - imagine how dead simple Cloudron makes things).
So, it's been about 9 months running Cloudron. I've got 2 domains, with emails configured for each, few apps (WordPress, NextCloud, etc.). This really allowed me to move away from Google for email, contacts, calendars, cloud, etc. I am definitely a very satisfied customer and am wishing the best of luck to the founders.
