It didn't happen THAT often before, but as a previous Windows user and restore point fan, Timeshift was a game changer. Don't have to tread lightly anymore. :D

I'm sure that timeshift has saved me more hours of sleep and dealing with crap than every other piece of software combined.

Does it work with docker? I remember there were some screw-ups with docker and the author of Timeshift basically said "Docker's fault, not gonna fix that".

I'm honestly not sure, never tried using it inside Docker. But, I haven't faced any problems running it with Docker + compose installed and active in the background, everything (including Docker containers) seems to come up just fine after a system restore.

Obviously, I can't guarantee that there exist no edge cases or problems that I simply have not encountered yet. I'm mostly using it for my personal computer (development) and webserver (dockerized servers, VPN, Jenkins).

I don't mean inside docker, it used to have trouble with just docker being present, it was no edge case. Glad that it's no longer the case.
