Like mastadon, peertube, akomma, etc. and having them run off one server?
I’ve found Yunohost, runtipi, caprover, and portainer (if using docker?) as potential options. They at least support one or two fediverse apps. Has anyone had any luck with them? I just got used to the idea of using a vps hypervisor/panel to manage multiple servers or having multiple sites on one server and was wondering if there was something like that for the fediverse side.

I believe you are using the wrong terminology. A hypervisor is a software suite that helps manage virtual machines. You are just looking for easy ways to spin up fediverse software. Docker with docker compose is all you need, and if you need a gui for it, dockge or portainer will be usable. Having at least a little bit of networking and container knowledge is necessary as well, as there is nothing out there yet that is “one click” for running those things. I started with Lemmy, as there is Lemmy-easy-deploy that does a lot of the heavy lifting for you.
Forsure, the terminologys a bit confusing, I thought it was for manaaging multiple servers , think dokploy was what im looking for, will check out lemmy-easy-deploy
Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t most of them available as containers? Why would you need any hypervisor support beyond containers?
I have vps from 4 different providers because of deals on lowendtalk, just wanted to monitor everything in one place at least
Ease of use, think dokploy was what I was looking for, want to monitor/manage with a panel or ui of somekind
Wouldn’t any VPS basically work as it’s providing you the Os (usually Linux) and it’s up to you to deploy the apps you want?
I want to manage them like I would wordpress sites in enhance, monitor all the vps from different providers, migrate website/databaseto another server using a ui (for ease of useh if necessary, its fairly common to use something like runcloud, ploi, serveravatar, etc. outside of the fediverse stuff at least

I tried using yunohost and some others but they all sucked. I went with just using the bare podman cli
Last time I checked, yunohost.org worked well. It either has the services you’re interested in, or it doesn’t… But it’s really easy to get it running. Docker containers also usually work well. Though, you need some amount of technical knowledge. And I’d recommend to use something like docker-compose and not do everything manually… If you’re a beginner, maybe just try YunoHost.
