The last post on the subject I could find was a year ago. So thought I would ask again. I have debian 12 up on miniPC and I have my NAS mounted. My intention is to use jellyfin and some of the arr* stuff. I know only a little about systemd (I just google what I need to know). I have some contianer knowledge, but mostly in k8s. And the docker parts aren’t really my problem. But I have a vague understanding of docker. What are the latest pros and cons of containers vs service installation?

    That too, but no, I was referring to the data/config folders for each container.

    For example, radarr it would be the config volume you mounted. Generally, the *arrs use a volume called ‘config’, but other containers will differ.

    I’ve only had to recover from backups twice in 5 years, once was my fault after fiddling with databases. But if you’re using the development/nightly branches, it’s best to be cautious and avoid having to reconfigure.
