Vihar here, one of the maintainers at Plane (https://github.com/makeplane/plane).
Last time, we shared how we reached 15K stars on GitHub in less than a year, pushing Plane to the top spot in #project-management. The post received great feedback from the HN community, and we noticed comments about lapses in self-hosting.
We took on the challenge, rethought the entire Docker setup, made it single-click, and provided a maintenance script.
Now, we share our journey to over 100K+ Docker pulls and 44K+ K8 deploys in this blog. Please let us know what we could improve.
Hope you enjoy the article. Feedback welcome!
Thanks,

Very happy to see this project thriving.
Only thing that irritates me is sso being locked behind a paid offering. No one should be required to pay for proper security when you offer a free option.
we use GitHub issues/projects and we're pretty happy with it. Github invested a lot to revamp projects over the past 3 years and it shows. would love to hear from anyone who's tried both how these compare.
Just as an example, while GitHub projects is great, tools like Plane (with bi-directional sync)/ZenHub still are trying to do a better job.
If you have lots of non technical people than it would require for them to be part of the GitHub organization hence paying more per user is just one downside however.
For example, Linear begins with the creation of a team, whereas we initiate with the creation of a project, subsequently integrating teams as needed. Currently, Plane is being utilized by a spectrum of users, ranging from small indie game developers to large enterprises. In Linear, the starting point always revolves around forming a team.
Additionally, there's always a free community edition available, which doesn't restrict the number of users.
