think of yantra as a docker app that control and runs other docker app, but thd catch is nothing touches the OS filesystem, that means it has highly customisable pre built templates
besoeasy profile picture
this is isolated app, those are full scale OS.

using yantra gives you freedom to use your Main OS and yantra stay seperated
besoeasy profile picture
I actually do both.

For long-running or serious stuff, I run Portainer and build apps directly from GitHub source. I don’t blindly trust Docker Hub either.

Yantra is for the other case: short-lived, utility apps.
If I want to download a YouTube playlist, I don’t want to sit there writing a compose file for something I’ll use once. I want one-click → use → delete.

Different tools for different workflows.
Abstraction isn’t always laziness — sometimes it’s just respecting your own time.

I get the point about servers and sovereignty — but that’s exactly why I’m critical of Umbrel.

If you’re doing anything serious, you shouldn’t be running a “node OS” at all. You run Debian, understand your system, use Docker/Portainer, and write your own configs. Umbrel doesn’t give you sovereignty there — it hides Debian behind a UI skin.

And if someone just wants easy installs, running a full OS is overkill. Umbrel isn’t a custom OS anyway, it’s still Debian underneath — just with opinions baked in.

Yantra sits in the middle: it’s just a Docker container (~155MB) that gives you an app-store experience without touching or taking over your system. No lock-in, no pretending to be an OS, no loss of control.

Sovereignty isn’t about running more layers — it’s about knowing what’s actually running.
