The bad part is I would have deployed this years ago when I wasn't so PHP fobic. I'd hesitate to deploy this today as I am not up to date on PHP security and pretty much that'd be my first thing to review is the code.

Tests are beyond basic it looks like the templates to just verify it boots...

No i'm not some Go god; or Rust nuthouse... just bad experience with php and security

The tests are happening in another branch, but you're right, they do not exist on the main develop branch yet. I've seen people run this in containers as well, and theres no reason it wouldn't. But if you don't like PHP, then unfortunately theres nothing I can really do about that. :)

This is the correct point of view for a project maintainer. Well said.

That's like saying the customer is never right. Having said that hardened and PHP isn't something that comes hand in hand.

Containers or not; I hope they stay on top of security issues or that hardened statement is going to be very underrated.

No, it's not.

Changing a core basis of a project/product because of one person's bad past experience is insane.

Would you stop using wooden doors because you got a splinter, or because a forest fire burnt down your house?

Would you stop using glass windows because you got sand in your pants at the beach?

Would you stop drinking water because you saw some guy drowned once?

They do have a container option:

> Pterodactyl is the first game panel to make use of Docker to control servers and harden your network.

that is referring to the daemons if I'm not mistaken
