I gave up Watchtower for this Docker update tool, and I’m never going back

When you’ve installed tons of Dockers, updating them becomes a chore — you need to manually check for new image versions and then go through the trouble of installing them yourself. Watchtower has been a fantastic tool to automate all those steps and update my containers, which is why it’s been my go-to app to do the dirty work. While I liked the automation and not having to think about updates anymore, this entirely hands-off approach recently started to become a liability. And the tool that proved to be a worthy replacement is none other than Diun.
