    On the main Dashboard, currently it reads, "Cloudron backups are currently on the same disk as the Cloudron server instance. This is dangerous and can lead to complete data loss if the disk fails. ..." However, more commonly is the issue of the disk filling up with backups, rendering Cloudron inoperable. Perhaps:

    Cloudron backups on the same disk as itself are not advised. If the disk fills up with these backups, the Cloudron will not function. You will experience complete data loss if the disk fails. ...
    

    Then, perhaps at the top of that linked page this can be repeated (since it is one of the more common occurrences).

    EDIT. Actually, the 1st sentence of the 2nd paragraph reads "Unlike VM snapshots, these backups contain only the necessary information to complete re-instate the Cloudron or app". The "re-instate" seems a bit off. How about:

    Unlike VM snapshots, these backups contain only the necessary information for reinstallation of the Cloudron or app.
    

    or

    Unlike VM snapshots, these backups contain only the necessary information to reinstall the Cloudron or app.
    

    This "re-instate" also appears under the App section (https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/). I think ''reinstallation/reinstall" works better because we don't "instate" Cloudron, we install it. Same with apps.

      Thanks! I fixed the grammar in the docs. Adjusted the text for backups as well.
