I set it to debug at somepoint and forgot maybe? Idk, but why the heck does the default config of the official Docker is to keep all logs, forever, in a single file woth no rotation?

Feels like 101 of log files. Anyway, this explains why my storage recipt grew slowly but unexpectedly.

Or you can use Podman, which integrates nicely with Systemd and also utilizes all the regular system means to deal with log files and so on.

    Good suggestion, although I do feel it always comes back to this “many ways to do kind of the same thing” that surrounds the Linux ecosystem. Docker, podman, … some claim it’s better, I hear others say it’s not 100% compatible all the time. My point being more fragmentation.

    100 ways to configure a static ip.
    Why does it need that? At least one per distro controlled by the distro-maintainers.

    There's basically three types of networking config:

    • direct with the kernel - don't do this
    • some distro-specific abstraction - e.g. /etc/network/interfaces for Debian
    • networking manager - wicked, network manager, etc

    I do the last one because it's distro-agnostic. I use Network Manager and it works fine.

    I notice that you replied to me once again in connection to me mentioning static IP and linux.
    Can I summon you this way? ^^

    Does podman do the Docker networking thing where I can link containers together without exposing ports to the rest of the system? I like my docker compose setup where I only expose caddy (TLS trunking) and Jellyfin (because my TV fails connecting w/ TLS).

    I think it also has that, but normally it uses an even easier concept of pods that basically wrap multiple containers into a meta container with it's own internal networking and name space, and that does exactly what you want.
