YunoHost
Server operating system aiming to make self-hosting accessible to everyone.
Developed outside the platforms our data source measures, so there is no activity history to score. This says nothing about the project — many unrated projects are actively maintained.

Is YunoHost actively maintained?
We cannot measure this one. YunoHost is developed outside the platforms our data source collects activity from, and its repository lives at github.com — so there is no commit history or release cadence here to score.
Read that as missing data, not as a warning. Several of the best-maintained projects in this catalogue are unrated for exactly this reason. To judge it, open the repository and look at the date of the most recent commit yourself.
What YunoHost actually does
YunoHost is a server operating system designed to simplify the administration of self-hosted services. It provides an interface to manage web applications, users, and domains without requiring deep Linux administration expertise.
Best fit: This is a suitable choice if you want to run multiple self-hosted services on a dedicated server but prefer a unified management layer rather than configuring everything manually via the command line.
Worth knowing: Operating systems that take over server administration can sometimes make it harder to debug low-level configuration issues or integrate with complex existing infrastructure setups.
Deployment notes
Because it acts as a base server operating system built with Python and shell scripts, it typically requires a dedicated clean machine or virtual private server rather than running as a standard containerised application.
