So, right out the gate, I realize Watchtower has been abandoned. I get that. Still, it's a great app. 95% of the time, it works every time.
The issue I have is as follows:

It doesn't do this everytime, and it's not one particular container. It seems random. For the example of SearxNG, I have not specified a MAC address.

In fact, I've never specified a specific MAC for any of my containers, and just let Docker do what it do. I'm just wondering if anyone has run up on this issue, and what did you do to remediate it, besides use another updater app? I like Watchtower, but only 95% of the time. LOL
It's not a huge issue spinning the container back up. Takes less than 30 sec. However, that's not how it's supposed to work, so I seek input.
Here is a fork of watchtower that is meant to keep things up to date that might work for you. I haven't tried it yet but am setting it up now.
Judging from the changelog it's almost exclusively updated dependencies and no real development to speak of.
Ah ok got it. For me personally that's about really all I want I guess. Watchtower has been so rock solid for me for so long that I just want to make sure it's at least kept up to date. Thanks!
