is there a way to recover snapshots to a share that has been completely deleted?

I tried moving my docker install over to my new ssd volume and used scp to move the @docker folder to the new volume so I wouldn't lose all my containers. I started getting permissions errors, but it seemed I had fixed them by starting the containers with pgid/puid as root, then changing back to the dockerlimited user and starting the containers again. seemed to work fine but then watchtower updated an image and it totally fried that container, with some btrfs can't remove subvolume issue. i couldn't delete, reset or start the container so it was like frozen. i tried to create a brand new container of the same image using portainer and it failed with another ocr init not found error. so i tried a nuclear option of chmod 777 of the entire @docker folder and i still wasn't able to create a container with portainer. it was giving the same error. so I figured the permissions and everything were so screwed up, the only thing to do is start from fresh. I used a docker-autocompose script to make compose files of all my containers and saved them in my docker shared folder.

Then i uninstalled container manager and checked the box to delete images, containers and shares. this deleted my docker share and the docker share i created as a backup. I think everything must still be there because even there's no share folders attributed to that volume, storage manager says theres still data on the drive. when i view usage details I see that snapshot is taking what i would expect to the correct amount for a full backup of the share folder i'd had but i can't tell for sure. Still I'm fairly positive the snapshot is my of my docker share. snapshot logs have this line from 5am today: 'Took a shared folder snapshot [GMT-05-2023.07.24-05.00.01] from share [docker] by [scheduler].'

How can I recover the share from the snapshot when the share doesn't exist anymore? If I create a new shared folder with the same name, would I be able to use the snapshot then? I'm honestly afraid to touch anything now because it seems at every step I just keep shooting myself in the foot and making things worse. Idk what to do.

Anytype is a PKMS, basically an advanced note taking app for building a second brain, managing tasks - managing life basically. They've recently "open sourced" but I'm not well versed enough to know the implications of what they've done here with their licensing. The only comment on this discussion shows disappointment and states that these licenses aren't open source some observers on Beehaw's FOSS community have shared the sentiment.

I'd love to have a discussion on this, looking between the lines and taking a critical look at who/what could be the beneficiary of these licenses.

Anytype has finally followed through on their promise and open sourced their repositories. Self hosting is now possible though there is no docker container available.

This is a major step forward for all PKMS and I wholeheartedly congratulate them.

btw Anytype is free, even their included sync service, which is the best of any offline-first style PKMS I have experienced. Anytype is top 3 PKMS for me, followed by Logseq and SiYuan. They're in good company and now it's only going to improve!

Some choice quotes: (saved from highlights from Omnivore a free (for now) open source read it later app that's quite popular. There's also Readwise Reader which I personally use though it's a subscription based model, but it has feature that Omnivore needs to catch up on (which it may).

Anyway, the quotes:

We’ve made a habit of filling those hundred random spaces in our day with glances at Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. But those glances have slowly become stares, and those stares have grown to encompass a major portion of our waking hours.

The end result is the same person who spends 127 hours per year on Instagram (the global average) complains that she has “no time” for reading.

**Much of the time when we pull out our phone, we’re looking for something to match our mood (or energy, or time available, or other context). We use our constellation of shiny apps as mood regulators and self-soothers, as time-fillers and boredom-suppressors, for better or worse. ... So you need a little entertainment, and you open…an ebook? Yeah right. ... **

It’s practical to have organized reading material at hand when you’re on your way to a meeting that may be starting late, a seminar that may have a window of time when nothing is going on, a dentist appointment that may keep you waiting, or, of course, if you’re going to have some time on a train or plane. Those are all great opportunities to browse and work through that kind of reading. People who don’t have their Read/Review material organized can waste a lot of time, since life is full of weird little windows when it could be used.

Worth noting that this is put together by AmpleNote. As of now it's very robust and trustworthy. But they day may come that they decide to cash in on this to boost their own offering. As of now I 100% believe in the content. It hasn't failed me yet.

ALSO, if you see something that isn't right, or that it's missing a product you'd like to see listed, you can make suggestions here:

I've just tried this out and it's a really fantastic experience. Development is happening at a rapid pace, and it's open source with 11k+ stars on github. For example, one month ago, they didn't have a ios app. Now they have offerings for every platform imagineable. The app is robust as well.

Allows transclusions but editing a transclusion pops up a window that's annoying, but the transclusions themselves look absolutely fantastic. In general this is what I wish using logseq felt like.

It does tick the 4 most important boxes for me:

1. Transclusion
2. Offline first
3. platform agnostic: ios, macos, windows, android, linux, docker, webview
4. Open Source

Additional goodies:

Looks like it'll have a plugin ecosystem. Logseq and obsidian benefit greatly from this. I have 30 plugins running on my logseq instance and it pushes the experience just that much higher. I have not explored the siyuan ecosystem, i don't even know if plugins yet exist, but I'm certain they'll have some excellent plugins in the future.

I'm not sure about cost but they currently sell lifetime subscriptions for ~$150. Not bad IMO but it's too often that these things shutter or become abandonware so buy with caution. Not sure what the cost of the monthly subscription is, but for reference, I pay$5/mo for logseq sync and it's good but not great and still a work in progress.

I love this quote from the creator's github page: (originally chinese)

"My wife Vanessa and I have been writing open source software since 2009, of which we have been maintaining the Solo project for 10 years now. Our creative field revolves around blogging and community systems, and we've been working hard on the B3log idea - a distributed community network. At the beginning of 2018, Vanessa and I resigned from the company and officially started our entrepreneurial career as a "full-time open source and freelancer". We built a company whose main product is the Sym community system. Its community edition is completely open source, and individuals can use it for free based on its open source license. In addition, we also operate a community chain drop with more than 50,000 users as the community end node of the B3log distributed community network. Recently we launched a new project, Siyuan Notes, which is a local offline-first personal knowledge management system that supports fine-grained block-level references and Markdown WYSIWYG. Welcome everyone to try and give feedback. For me and Vanessa, open source has become more than just a hobby, it is a way of life, and we are very confident in the future of this "open source living" path. Hopefully along the way we can help others with open source software, and others can help us. Open source connects you and me, open source builds the future, let us enter the open source world together! "
