I run my containers in an LCX on Proxmox (yes I heard I should use a VM, but it works..)

For data storage (syncthing, jellyfin ..) I make volumes in the LXC. But I was wondering if this is the best way?

I started thinking about restoring backups. The docker backups can get quite large with all the user data. I was wondering if a separate "NAS" VM and NFS shares makes more sense. Then restoring/cloning docker lxc would be faster, for troubleshooting. And the user data I could restore separately.

What do you guys do?

Do you use reverse proxy?

One of the reasons I use a single lxc is that I can reverse proxy containers without exposing ports / http to the LAN, it seemed like a good feature to me.

No reverse proxy. In LAN everything is seen and accessible.

No port is open to WAN, I connect via my router VPN from extern.
