Let me throw in Paperless NGX, https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx

:-)

But seriously, I was wondering about the requirement to shutdown the VM's and couldn't come up with a solid reason? I mean, even if QEMU/KVM/Kernel get replaced during a version upgrade or a more common update, all of these kick in only after the reboot? And how's me shutting down VMs manually different from the OS shutting down during a reboot?

I know I am speculating and may not have the fill picture, probably a question for the Proxmox team, there may be some corner case where this is indeed important.

By the way, Mexican or US black strat? :-)

Like you I have OPNsense in a VM on one of my PVEs. But I only made sure the nigthly VM back up ran and didnt even bother shutting down the VMs during the upgrade. The VMs got restarted during the final reboot, as the would with every other reboot, and I was back in business.

KeePassXC and Nextloud to sync things between devices…

KeePassXC for me…

I used this guide when setting up my self hosted email: https://workaround.org/ispmail/buster/big-picture/

I also added in Ciphermail for email encryption and it's been almost hands off ever since.

Granted, there were quite a few things to digest until things were working as I wanted.

I set mine up with the 0.17.4 and got it working, but like you wrote the the instructions have changed, all the detail is gone so I can only guess. Are there any volume statements in the new (v. 0.18) docker-compose.yml for the proxy container which would point to a local file? Mine has got this:

    volumes:
      - ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro

and I had to set up the local nginx.conf file.

edit: I just had a similar conversation in the Lemmy Matrix channel, it looks like the official documentation for some reason doesn't specify the content of the nginx_internal.conf file any longer. After adding the v. 0.17 nginx content to this file that instance was working.
