I know enough to be dangerous. I know enough to follow faqs but dumb enough to not backup like I should.
So I’d be running my server on bare metal and have a couple services going and sooner or later, shit would get borked. Shit that was miles past my competence to fix. Sometimes I’d set up a DB wrong, or break it, or an update would screw it up, and then it would all fall apart and I’m there cursing and wiping and starting all over.
Docker fixes that completely. It’s not perfect, but it has drastically lowered my time working on my server.
My server used to be a hobby that I loved dumping hours into. Now, I just want shit to work.

I run it as a docker app then feed it to Plex and jellyfin.
