Pocket ID now available on Pikapods!

Maybe it doesn't matter to you, but I put in a suggestion about a year ago to add Pocket ID to Pikapods and they completed it today!

For me I have a few services that I expose via reverse proxy (caddy) for my friends/family. I first secure the domain access using Cloudflare Access with Pocket ID as the auth, and then if the service provides OIDC/OAuth for accounts (which all of mine do), I use Pocket ID again for the account auth. I also use it for SSO access to some other web apps and wordpress sites hosted on Pikapods.

Up until now that Pocket ID instance was locally hosted, so if for some reason there was a problem with the container or Proxmox node that that Pocket ID is running on and the HA failed to move the container to another one of my nodes then my users and I would lose SSO access to most things. It also had the potential security vulnerability of the auth system being on the same device/network as the proxied services - if my Pocket ID was compromised maybe they compromised my whole Proxmox cluster? These are both points of anxiety for me even though they have never become an issue yet.

Now I can migrate this to a Pikapod and for a very reasonable price I can have some separation between my auth system and the proxied services that it gates.
