Yeah. Actually, knowing that you can spin up a new server and restore a backup. I had to do this once recently when one of my server’s had a SSD die. I wished that I had actually practiced (though, as it turned out, though I hadn’t explicitly practiced, having gone through the process hundreds of times was enough and it all went as planned).
There is no downside, especially since a bunch of plugins got moved to core and there could be something old that’s broken. After the thing is in working order, you can go about restoring whatever plugins you notice are missing.
