[#]Cloud #hosting recommendation?

The world of cloud hosting is changing so rapidly. What I'd like is a provider where I could "one-click-install" a range of packages. For example, I'd like to try NextCloud or my own instance of PenPot. I realize not all services will provide a 1-click for EVERYTHING but I'd like one that has a robust set that would allow me to play. This does NOT need to be high performance, this is for personal exploration.

@scottjenson It's not really a "1-click install" workflow, but... it's easy enough if you have a tech background: use docker.

That way you can use whatever hosting provider that have VPS. And all you have to do, is getting the docker-compose.yaml file, move it to the machine and execute "docker compose up -d", it will automatically set all dependencies to get the related service running.

Today, the chances that you don't find a docker build pour a tool is really low, compared to the 1-click marketplaces.

@NicolasConstant that's all very reasonable. But as a #UX designer I'm trying to find a way for more consumer-driven folk, clearly not technical ones, to be able to have a chance in hell at getting something like Nextcloud up and running with no more work than signing up for Dropbox. I expect it's a big ask (but gotta try)
