https://immich.app/docs/administration/backup-and-restoreso I can just move the files to the new location?
No, you can't just move the DB
If dockge is running on TrueNAS, and you use datasets instead of ixVolumes you might not even need to move a single thing
At the same time, what's the reson you want to use dockge?
in hopes that it's more stable. Ive had lots of errors when updating the app
I can just point the dockercompose.yml to the existing datasets?
Never had any issues with it, but yes, with dockge you'll use the official way
Depends, if you already switch to the new structure used inside Truenas, meaning single "data" dataset, and one pgData dataset, then yes
If you have the old one, I would say that is also possible, but you'll have to use custom data location: https://docs.immich.app/guides/custom-locations/
