Migrating from ARM to X86 (alien.top)

Hello All,

I currently have a home server on a raspberry pi 4 with all my services running as docker containers. All containers have their own directories containing the config and database files. This makes it easy to backup and export then.

​

However, in the future I have plans to migrate to a more powerful server. This means I will probably not be using a CPU with an ARM architecture. So effectively, I will also have to use the corresponding docker images. So will this new x86 docker image work with my backup docker config volumes?

It should, in theory, only the binaries should be different so all config/media should work.
