Backup your docker config and your data, that's what you actually need. The rest is just available online if you ever need it.
>Besides sometimes you need to run software that is not available on linux.
Really, like what?
- Saris 10mo agoGood backup software deduplicates on storage. Proxmox backup server for example.
