As a happy user of coolify, what’s the difference between these two?

Even coolify lets you add as many machines as you want and then manage docker containers in all machines from one coolify installation.

Uncloud is a bit lower-level, CLI-only (for now), with no central server. If some nodes go offline, the rest keep working and stay manageable.

It also has the WireGuard overlay networking built in so containers across machines get direct connectivity without having to map ports to the host. For example, securely access a database running on another machine. This also allows you to horizontally scale your services to multiple replicas on different machines and distribute traffic between them with minimal configuration.

The current state of Uncloud is the primitives and foundation that could be used to build a more higher-level PaaS-like solution such as Coolify.

Vendor lock-in, Kubernetes is future proof.
