I miss this from cloud hosting. It’s helpful to be able to save, clone, or do whatever with the current machine state and easily just flash back to where you were if you mess something up. Might be too much to set up for my current homelab though. My server does have btrfs snapshots of everything directly in grub which has let me roll back a few big screwups here and there.
Comment on Docker Backup Stratagy

I just took line of least effort, all my docker containers are hosted on dedicated VM in proxmox, so I just backup entire VM on weekly basis to my NAS. Already had to restore it once when I was replacing SSD in proxmox host, worked like a charm.

While that’s an easy solution it makes it impossible or rather difficult to restore single containers and/or files.

It’s not that difficult. You can create a second VM from the backup with a few clicks and move the necessary data with scp.
