Matthias Liffers@social.tthi.astoSelfhosted@lemmy.world•Advice/poll on switching away from Ubuntu for my VM host.
0·
1 year agoI just swapped from Ubuntu to Debian but I don’t use VMs - only containers. I back my files up directly to B2 using autorestic, also running in a container that is scheduled by… another container (chadburn).
No need for any VMs in my house. I honestly can’t see the point of them when containers exist.
I’ve done a couple of host migrations since using Docker for all my services.
I don’t even bother with database dumps or anything like that, I copy my compose files and mapped directories, being sure to preserve permissions, and all my services come back up without any issues.
