With containers, most will have a persistent volume that is mapped to the host filesystem. This is where your config data is. When you update a container, just the image is updated(pihole binaries) but it leaves the config files there. Things like your block lists and custom dns settings, theme settings, all of that will remain.

Have you tried the fedora KDE spin? I love it.

I feel this way about Lowes vs home depot. Home depot for the real projects, Lowes to buy the designer hammer that never gets used…

They make a pill for that…

I’ve been really happy with fedora, specifically the KDE spin. Looks amazing and a lot of things just work.

I’m a sysadmin and we are in the very early stages of rolling out windows 11 to our users. Windows is windows, but I just can’t help but have observations that windows 11 looks like KDE did maybe 10 years ago? It’s like a badly themed linux distro from 2015…

Alternative to ombi is overseer which imo has the best interface. Just throwing it out there as an option.

There is plenty of propaganda on lemmy. You just have to realize you will always be fed propaganda and understand there is propaganda on each side of every issue…

Instant = knoppix

I find Redhat annoying with how they lock down access to KB articles unless you have a subscription and certain "proprietary " things they do but I managed over 500 RHEL 7 and 8 servers at my previous job and I will say that their support is excellent, and RHEL is rock solid. Satellite server on the other hand, that thing is a steaming pile of garbage…

Can’t speak for OP but I can say that I switched to proxmox from just running docker and services native. Proxmox offers a lot of flexibility, you can do snapshots, build many different LXC containers very easily, to keep things separate or have better control over resource usage. Also I run mine in a 3 node cluster so I can do live migration of VMs and pretty quick migrations of LXC containers. This all allows me to run my services with little to no downtime and have redundancy.

This looks really cool. Any recommendations on clients(speakers)? I have a couple of older raspberry pies I could use if as remote speakers, but I’d need a few more.

What are you using for client devices?

I’m coming back to linux as a main desktop, finally ditching windows (again). I tried out fedora workstation and the fedora KDE spin. KdE looks so good now, before i atteibuted it to a windows wanna-be knock off. This was back in the windows xp days… now it looks so polished. I probably prefer it to gnome because I’ve been a windows user for so long but gnome is nice with its minimal approach, looks nice and clean. Can’t get away from how nice KDE looks though, I’m going to stick with that I think.

I do most of my own maintenance on my cars for two reasons. I kind of like doing them myself, and I can make sure it’s getting done (and done correctly). Not saying all shops are like this, but I have seen some shady and damn right ignorant practices going on. From not actually doing the service you paid for, to totally using the wrong oil, or over tightening lug nuts, or worse not tightening them enough. My aunt had a tire go rolling down the road after she pulled out of the tire shop she just bought the tires from… I get it not everyone wants to do it themselves, or they don’t have the tools or the space to do it. Just verify the work is being done right is all…

I’m a big fan of duplicati. You can install it on Linux, windows, (not sure about mac) and use it to send backups anywhere. Backup to your nas, to s3, smb share, whatever.
