I use Authentik - works well - but I’m prepping to switch to Authelia for the config-based setup.
I updated Authentik across 2 versions (they did 2 month-long supported tags, missed one; now they do 3 month-long supported tags) and it destroyed itself. Had to recover the DB from a backup (and then step through the version I tried to skip), and while I was doing that I was like “wait why does this have only a DB? Should just be a config file cause that’s all the depth I do with it” and lo that’s what Authelia is.
Authentik is audited and Authelia has not been. Initially while I chose Authentik. But config-file robustness in the face of Authentik’s GUI-setup DB imploding swayed me not to care, it’d take so long and be so tedious to redo all my proxies and auths through the GUI. Plus I always forget what to click in the GUI when I come back to add some new program in 4 months.
