Question about software compiled for different architectures
From what I understand, nspwan is like a chroot "on steriods", and allows something like this to happen: https://github.com/sakaki-/raspbian-nspawn-64 . Not sure how useful it is as an alternative to VMs, since afaik it's limited to systemd, so no non-systemd distros to try out. Generally speaking tho (although I don't have much experience with chroots), the only useful use case I've seen for nspawn is stuff like raspbian-nspawn.

Considerations for a long-running Raspberry Pi
I've been running a bunch of Pi's for years now, and the biggest problem I've had is the Pi itself dying: 24/7 usage is hard on a small device. I've also found that stable power is essential, and to that end I've always used 5v 3a branded power cubes, plugged into a pure sine wave UPS. Choice of micro-SDHC cards is important and I ended up getting ATP industrial cards (https://www.atpinc.com/products/industrial-sd-cards) - expensive but really long-lived. Finally, using RPi-clone (https://github.com/billw2/rpi-clone) on a regular basis has been a life-saver. I clone to Sandisk Extreme micro-SDHCs and can recover from an outage in minutes.

Boot Pi4 from an SSD, not the MicroSD card
I would normally use the Pi SD-Card copier to duplicate the SD-Card to an SSD but I'm unsure if this is available on the Ubuntu image - you could possibly use this program [Github] if you are not keen on using dd with a running system.

Help needed on setting up Pi to boot from SSD
Then you will need to clone the SD to the SSD, you can use many tools that are available from your desktop computer or you can try with rpi-clone, just connect the SSD with Pi booted from SD, stop any possible service/docker to prevent any copy error and run, adapting device naming but usually will be (check device with dmesg):

Help needed on setting up Pi to boot from SSD..
I used rpi-clone, it was super easy. Whole process took 10 minutes. https://github.com/billw2/rpi-clone
- I wish I wouldβve switched to SSD Boot years ago
- Is it possible to convert an bootable sd to a bootable usb-ssd?
