I am sick of managing torrents on my main pc and want to run them on my secondary pc and just remote into it.

my question, how can I move all of my torrents? both pc’s are linux if that helps. Is there a folder containing all torrent links that I can copy over? the actual files (linux isos) are on nas’s, so hopefully the filepath wouldn’t change…

    It runs on the system you install it in, all containers do is isolate the software to a controlled environment so it doesn’t directly use your system packages.

    The advantage in terms of migration is that you can just have a directory with a compose file and your configuration directories and that can be moved to any system

    If memory serves TechHut did a pretty good docker introduction video a few years ago.

      I just watched the video with “easy mode” at the end, I have no fucking clue WTF is he doing most of the time. From your comment and the one next to yours I thought that I had an idea of what it was, but after that video I think I don’t want to be anywhere close to a docker thing, ever. That dude should be banned from using the word easy.

        Well, it does require some preliminary IT knowledge, but as far as IT skills go I’d say it’s one of the more basic systems.
