  • Depends on what you’d want. A dockerfile defines how the image is built. If you want to mimic this then you need scripts.

    But I think you could benefit from learning how docker works from the ground up if you want to recreate docker inages in lxc.

    Better use is a dedicated docker host (a vm) and run your non-docker on lxc. Treat lxc as a minimal vm for one ( or a few) services/apps per lxcontainer


  • That depend on how much work you have to do to keep it working.

    Let’s take a fairly common webserver like Caddy. Now you can install this through docker, or natively on linux.

    If the app only exists as docker image then it cones down to your ability or recreating what the dockerfile does to get it installed on your lxc container.

    Fun fact: early editions of docker used lxc for its containers.



  • Printing is a bitch no matter the platform and its usually the producers of the printers that fail. Everyone wants to make their own standard or interpret any standard in their own way. Duplex settings? Sometimes easy to find, and sometimes called something else and put in a weird spot of the interface.

    Basic printing to usb is fine on Linux. My pi zero hooked to a brother laser has been providing wifi printing for me for the last 5 years. Installed cups and connected the usb and it was rocking




  • No - and if they left it at that it would be great. I had to clean up 25 devices that had ububtu Lts, and that advantage had enabled the repos for thst shit, so apt wouldnt even do a dist-upgrade to prepare for do-release-upgrade.

    Its not just the OS either, they are cancer to oss with their mixed «community» and enterprise stuff.

    They only ever open source as little as they can.

    Sell services, not code














  • Can you see the data you copied inside the container? I’m quite sure you either don’t have the volume mounted, or the config files refers to a different folder than the gitea one did. Did your gitea container store data in sqlite as you are copying raw files rather than migrating a database?

    I’d go with lxc instead of containers if you don’t fully understand docker. Overhead isn’t much different and you get a “normal server” where you can drop in forgejo to replace gitea
