Now, if only there was a simple, built-in way to backup/export and restore/import all settings and other data, so that all platforms could do this easily, without having to search the internet for which folders to back up…
FYI, this is the best we have atm (which is pretty terrible). Please correct me if there is a better way:
I run JF in a docker container, and although I don’t have backups of my config files yet (because I don’t really care about setting up from scratch if need be), it would be trivial to simply backup the mounted config volumes. Makes upgrading safe and easy, too.
That’s probably how I would recommend going about this, personally.
