Hey - so I am just getting started with self hosting and docker containers.

I have found that I can backup all my containers to this location easily via script https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker

My largest container compressed size in my private repository is 3GB.

I was wondering if backing up to a hub.docker private repository is okay and if there is going to be cost/limitations to doing that?

What are you using for backing up your containers? I noticed people often expressing importance of backups but then not sharing how they are doing their backups and their backup setup.

    I either use public available containers like from docker hub or other registry. Or if I build them myself I have them pushed to my own self hosted registry with a minio(s3 compatible) backend and mirror the MinIO instance to a VPS.

    All dynamic data is saved with the VM backup the container runs on or is backed up with rdiff-backup to an offsite location.
