i've got a RPI and other SBC, once month, make a copy of the MicroSD card, as the data is in the HD

Very little. I have enough redundancy through regular snapshots and offsite backups that I'm confident enough to let Watchtower auto-update most of my containers once a week - the exceptions being pihole and Home Assistant. Pihole gets very few updates anyway, and I tend to skip the mid-month Home Assistant updates so that's just a once a month thing to check for breaking changes before pushing the button.

Meanwhile my servers' host OSes are stable LTS distros that require very little maintenance in and of themselves.

Ultimately I like to tinker, but once I'm done tinkering I want things to just work with very little input from me.

Almost none now that i automated updates and a few other things with kestra and ansible. I need to figure out alerting in wazuh and then it will probably drop to none.

@ALostInquirer@lemm.ee Not much tbh, I host email, a git server, activitypub, change detector, healthchecks, libreddit and another dozen of services in 3 different servers.

Every now and then I check manually the backups, because it is the sane thing to do. Also I try some new services on docker, but that is less and less common tbh.

Very little. Thanks to Docker + Watchtower I don't even have to check for updates to software. Everything is automatic.

That must be why it stopped working ;-)

Does 48 hours not getting a reverse proxy working count?

It’s FreeNAS and I don’t really hoast anything but the plex server… so 48 hours.

If deleting files counts 10 days a year, if not 1 day a year.
