Docker containers don't restart after reboot (except mail)

I see there is a restart: always defined for the mail container.
https://github.com/plausible/hosting/blob/0e9224017420417c3a45f89d1add4b1ccc2c29bd/docker-compose.yml#L5

Shouldn't this be defined in the plausible container to restart everything? I'm new to docker so maybe this doesn't work but makes sense to me. Thanks for the great project :)

Yes, on our production servers we actually use restart: always. Would make sense to add it to the hosting repo as well.

Hi,

You can just add a restart policy to all necessary containers.

Either:
restart: unless-stopped
Or:
restart: always

First does just restarting the container when it was running before the shutdown. Second restarts the container until it is destroyed.
