Lemmy reboot frequency

Hello fellow Lemmyers or what ever we are!

Today my Lemmy server went sort of down (uptime is OK, but the server seemed having problems to serve requests), so I restarted the docker and everything is back to normal. I use the docker version, I haven't upgraded to the last version.

How frequently should you relaunch the docker, if ever? Should I be better and upgrade faster?

What do you think?

Cheers!

I've never had to restart the Lemmy container and tracking down the reason why is probably a good idea.

Also rule 5, this belongs to !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
Only on upgrades normally.
- I second that. I want to add that you might miss new posts and comments while your instance reboots, you want to keep reboots to a minimum.
  
  Really? No, I think the other instances will retry a couple of times to deliver posts.
I was getting slow down after a few days so I have cronjob to restart the docker every evening
This post violates rule 5. Locking.
