I'm very happy using docker swarm on a single host with traefik as reverse proxy using the setup described here: https://dockerswarm.rocks/
Super easy deployment of additional apps, defined completely in one file (incl setup on host, backups, reverse proxy config, etc).
Never found a reason to migrate away. Swarm was already considered dead when I started using it in 2022[1], but the investment was so low and benefits so big, that it was the right choice for me. I think a lot of people are replicating swarm features with compose, losing a lot of time. But hey, to each their own choice!
