Ditching Homarr for Homepage with Docker Autodiscovery Homarr has been running into memory issues on my homelab, and on top of that, every new service meant a manual trip into the UI to wire it up. That kind of overhead compounds quickly. Homepage fixes both: it is lighter, and it supports Docker label-based autodiscovery, meaning containers register themselves on the dashboard just by having the right labels. My Setup Homepage runs on my main lxc-homelab LXC container, alongside Traefik on the proxy Docker network. A second container, lxc-media, runs my media stack separately.
