How's your stuff doing? Unplanned interruptions or achieving uptime records?

I'm currently sailing rather smooth. Most of my stuff is migrated to Komodo, there will stay some exceptions and I only have to migrate Lemmy itself I think. Of course that's when I found a potential replacement but I'll let it sit for a while before touching it again. Enjoying the occasional Merge Request notification from the Renovate Bot and knowing my stuff is mostly up to date.

I'm thinking about setting up some kind of Wiki for my other niche hobby (Netrunner LCG) lore as there's a fandom one that most people avoid touching and updating but since I likely won't have time to start writing some articles on my own as a kickoff I'm hesitant. Also not sure which wiki I'd choose as well.

Working on automating tasks so I don't have to block out hours of time a week managing everything. Just got watchtower running and going to see how it does before trying out some other automations.

If you find that watchtower (original) screws up the updates frequently there is a watchtower fork that runs so much smoother. I don't have any issues with it at all. The original watchtower app hasn't had an update in 2 years, so it might be something to keep in mind.

I'm actually using this one which seems to be more actively maintained than the one you linked.

Bookmarked! Thanks for that. Learning all kinds of stuff today.

In fact you must use the fork. The old one no longer works with recent Docker, due to API versioning. I found that out last night when I brought up my compose stack and traefik wouldn't start, because it too needed an update.

I had that issue with Portainer recently. I had to drop back to the previous docker version, and held it until Portainer works through the snag. I didn't think about original watchtower being affected. I just got tired of having to fix broken updates, and went looking for something better. When original watchtower worked tho, it worked well.
