So this is a similar model to Coolify, which seems to be a direct competitor. In fact, it looks VERY similar to Coolify, even down to the menus and menu structure.

I'd be interested to see a side by side comparison of the two platforms.

They have one, although probably somewhat biased: https://docs.dokploy.com/docs/core/comparison
Ah thanks, I was looking in the FAQs, not the docs.
Shucks, I don't know about either so I'm guess I'm out of luck :)

So Coolify seems strictly non-managed, you manage the hosting itself. While the project in this submission seem to hint at being managed?

Both offer a monetised version where (basically) someone installs it on your server for you and takes care of updates etc. for you.
And Coolify seems to be actually open source.
