Could someone please tell me if there is a way to backup Truecharts apps that I have installed on TrueNAS Scale?

Hi there! Your text contains links to other Lemmy communities, here are correct links for Lemmy users: !selfhost@lemmy.ml

The best thing I ever did was abandon TrueNAS and move to Debian. TrueCharts were a fucking nightmare and constantly required maintenance or even fresh installs.

They have official community apps now that they do themselves, and it’s amazing. I’ve switched all my apps over and I’ve had no problems since.

I really like truenas for nas but I agree with you on running vms/docker somewhere else. I ended up keeping truenas for the mass storage (the only thing I run on it is one virtual machine to hold proxmox backupserver on an ivol). I think the much better home platform for vms is proxmox. You get ar eally nice gui that makes everything pretty easy, it's debian under the hood and with proxmox backup server you can very easily backup your virtual machines. It's also very easy to mount nfs or cifs shares into docker containers so you can keep the bulk data of your docker environment directly on the nas, which makes managing backups dead simple.
