Wow people are recommending a lot of things I don’t do and now I’m worried I’m doing something wrong.
I just have a folder on my Ubuntu boot drive called Docker with all of the persistent data from my containers. And I just tell Duplicati to backup that folder to BackBlaze. I don’t stop the containers to do that. Am I doing something wrong?
I first tried out Plex like a decade ago because The Simpsons weren’t available online in any way and I hated having to change DVDs all the time. I loved that it remembered where I’d left off too.
I was using it to track which episodes I’d rewatched as I prepared for a Simpsons trivia competition. My team ended up taking second place! We won a case of donuts. :-)
I just had a strange issue with Watchtower where it somehow failed to update itself. And it left a running but unhealthy duplicate of itself. Just restarting the old container fixed it. But I guess that’s a risk?
Would be cool if it tracked credit card annual fees.
How would you automate the stopping of the containers?
