How do you set up a server? Do you do any automation or do you just open up an SSH session and YOLO? Any containers? Is docker-compose enough for you or are you one of those unicorns who had no issues whatsoever with rootless Podman? Do you use any premade scripts or do you hand craft it all? What distro are you building on top of?

I’m currently in process of “building” my own server and I’m kinda wondering how “far” most people are going, where do y’all take any shortcuts, and what do you spend effort getting just right.

    People like to diss running kubernetes on your personal servers, but once you have enough services running in your servers, managing them using docker compose is no longer cut it and kubernetes is the next logical step to go. Tools such as k9s makes navigating as kubernetes cluster a breeze.
