I've held off on updating Docker due to some recent changes that caused issues with a couple of my favorite apps, like Portainer and PhotoPrism. Now that some time has passed, I'm wondering if everything has stabilized and whether it's safe to allow Docker to update again. Have the bugs been worked out, or should I still be cautious?

If you're using these containers in some important way, you should think about setting up a testing environment first. That way, you can test the update without risking your main setup.
Have all your apps been updated to work with the new Docker API? That's really the key here. I think Portainer is fine now, but I couldn't find any recent info about PhotoPrism. It seems like the discussion has cooled down, which makes me wonder if it's safe to update.
Honestly, I'd say it's probably safe to update. I've had Portainer crash too, but they fixed that issue a few months back. I had some other minor errors, but nothing major. Overall, it seems like most changes went smoothly. If you rely heavily on certain services, though, it might be worth doing a little extra research before diving in.
