Is that really self hosting though ?

Self hosting to me is, at the very least having physical access to the machines.

coolify.io is also a great open-source alternative if someone wants a web interface.

I think GP miswrote; Dokku does not host, it manages containers and makes deployment easier. It's like a self-hosted Heroku.

Anyone with experience to compare Coolify vs. Dokku? (and maybe something else?)

Yes, it's self hosting. You have access to the machine.
