After 3 failed ansible upgrade attempts yesterday that caused the lemmy-ui container to continually restart with error: "Input buffer contains unsupported image format", each time reverting to prior snapshot, I tried it again awhile ago but this time removed the site icon before the upgrade.

Sweet. Just spun up an instance of linkding on my nas. Looks cool!

Mine runs on a synology nas, and i have a hyperbackup task that copies the data volume up to gdrive every night (encrypted of course).

Also, any device you've synced to vaultwarden will retain the data even if the server is down, and with the addin for firefox for example, you can export that data out.
