You’re from the dev team, right? Thanks for the amazing OSS!

Regarding the containers, AFAIK it's 5 for the core setup (dashboard/signal/management/relay/coturn) plus Traefik in my case. It feels like a bit much, but the services are almost stateless and not resource intensive even on my little VPS. The setup script (bash + envsubst) is so straightforward and thanks to good documentation, I’ve never found the setup confusing. (I use Renovate to keep things updated, but I’d love to know if there's a recommended update path.)

A couple of minor things I noticed: 1. the dashboard image isn't on ghcr.io. 2. the generated compose.yaml contains hardcoded values. It could be even better if it referenced values from a .env file instead.

By the way, are there any ways to support NetBird other than GitHub Sponsors?

Coturn is not needed in the new versions as STUN is embedded in the relay service now

Your usage is the best form of sponsorship haha
