I used to simply use the ‘latest’ version tag, but that occasionally caused problems with breaking changes in major updates.
I’m currently using podman-compose and I manually update the release tags periodically, but the number of containers keeps increasing, so I’m not very happy with this solution. I do have a simple script which queries the Docker Hub API for tags, which makes it slightly easier to find out whether there are updates.
I imagine a solution with a nice UI for seeing if updates are available and possibly applying them to the relevant compose files. Does anything like this exist or is there a better solution?
Sorry if it’s obvious, but I don’t see a way to use Matrix for notifications on their documentation and my searching is coming up blank. Do you by chance have a tutorial for this?

WatchTower can auto uodate your container or notify you when an update is available, I use it with a Matrix account for notifications
Yes, https://containrrr.dev/watchtower/ is a great tool. Used it myself for a whole now.
+1 for watchtower. I’ve been using it for about a year now without any issues to keep anywhere from 5 to 10 Docker containers updated.

Here is how I did it:
Edit: I created a pull request to the WatchTower documentation, here: https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower/pull/1690
Thank you very much! I’ll get this set up on mine.
