I have CasaOS running on a Pi 4, I do not have a 5 yet. Feature I really like is the file manager + file editor + shell terminal in web browser for local or remote. Still looking for something better with those features, or maybe those features stand-alone in a docker container. Would be nice if I could have multiple browser tabs open simultaneously each with one of those features. It is liberating to have everything available in a web browser so it works anywhere!

I wonder Raspbian 5 is still lighter weight than Umbrel? Rasbpian + Docker/docker-compose + Portainer is so solid and lightweight.

I wanted something like this, thank you

early versions of umbrel wasn't built from the ground up with security in mind. it was always about looks and functionality first in a perpetual beta where security issues would be dealt with later. i never used it for that reason. not sure how they are now, but i'd have second thoughts before using it for anything worthwhile.

Nice review, Don. Better hardware; better software; more fun!

I have casa os in RPi 5.works a dream. Tons of apps.

[JasonTechSF]

Doing a comparison between CasaOS and Umbrel would be nice. Given that the Pi has less processing power than a full-blown desktop, the better server OS running on it should be as lean as possible to squeeze every CPU workload from the Pi to run what matters: the applications — be they run as containers or otherwise. Is there another server OS that does nothing but running containers? Can a container manager such as Portainer run baremetal?

[sidneyking]

Interesting! when I receive my pi 5 I will give it a try.

[vintermute]

Thanks for your work but I realize better way it use n100 mini pc because RP5 dosent have hardware acceleration for trans-coding video.

[asaone]

Don, how are you doing ? I hope you are doing better. Miss your informational post. 🙏

[facistmonk]

after reading comments - now i am confused, this OS or CASA

[haydenc]

Is this for RPi5?
Does Rasbian install on the RPi5?
I am using armbian...and it installed like a boss!!!
Keep em coming!!!!

Or you can just install Portainer and use that to manage your docker container as Portainer is supported.

I’ve got CasaOS on my RPi5, running “Crafty console controller” . Yes there are issues, like upgrading CasaOS… but it works and is beautiful. Just not polished.

Hello don, do you own a coral chip? I wonder to how many words/sec it would give... quality is scary in regards to weather, a simple topic but promising as you said... thanks m8

Hey, I been using Umbrel for years, but they didn’t update many apps do I changed to Start9, start-os. Doesn’t have as many apps, but you can add your own.

Umbrel 1.0 is out. Could you make a video on it?

[WilliamFrota]

Cool Video, wished you had installed this as a container on a really cheap mini pc with intel N100 using Proxmox and created a light media server for comparison. I belive there's like an Umbrel fork called Citadel as well but haven't really tried it.

[asopok]

Which would you recommend, Casaos or Umbrel?
