If you're already using a VM anyway (especially for the backend/web UI piece) restoring the image won't be any different for a server running docker vs one running apt packages.
True, I could use VM+Docker as you say. I've been thinking of making a dedicated "Docker VM" before when I've looked at interesting projects that has no other offerings.
I've felt that using docker in a vm robs docker of it's advantages so why use it at all if I'm planning on having a vm? I guess one answer is "because the software you want is delivered as a docker image".
It may seem like unnecessary overhead, but dockerized vaultwarden in a VM has been a huge improvement for me compared to unix-pass.
And with the volumes set up right, moving it is as easy as copy/pasting the folder it all lives in.
Sounds like I should get my docker vm. :)
