Well, after a while in the container world ive come to realise that keeping all these containers up to date is hard work and time consuming with simple docker compose. I’ve recently learnt that portainer may come to hand here. I believe that feeding the yaml file through portainer allows the latter to take control of updates. Correct?

I have a Truenas Scale machine with a VM running my containers as i find its the easiest approach for secure backps as i replicate the VM to another small sever just in case.

But i have several layers to maintain. I dont like the idea of apps on Truenas as I’m worried i dont have full control of app backup. Is there a simpler way to maintain my containers up to date?

    I’m pretty sure that stopped working months ago…

    You’ve probably been running out of date containers.

      I changed versions recently to be safe, but the old watchtower was still working when I gave it up. Just because it’s unmaintained doesn’t mean it stops working from one day to the next.

        It broke on me which is how I found out about the depreciation, but I don’t remember the details to be fair.
