Use limine and btrfs partition, activate snapper support early, so you can rollback easily if any issues arise, ive found it easiest with that bootloader.
I use cachyos, its nice, has everything for gaming in a post insrall script you click a button, just install it and you wont want to distrohop, it has a good wiki, many yt videos, benefit is the aur, if you dont care about the aur go bazzite (only reason I don't use bazzite is aur, otherwise all Id use are flatpaks)
liked seeing tech stuff like linux and selfhosting, dont really see it anymore, starting to use it less and less
think programming.dev blocks nsfw and political stuff
Isnt it harder to host that kind of stuff, like you need certain providers, prob a bitch to moderate
both I bet
I learned so much off ppl tweaking off taking too much, life saver for sure.
enhance is fire because its easy to connect multiple servers so you can buy the cheapest deals you find, then migration is easy and backups work well, are automated and easy. Next update this week or next week will make the backuprole installation easy, for now it requires having some unmounted volume (which is easy to setup at hetzner but id just wait 2 weeks for that)
I've always thought thered be some benefit to this but only as an optional government funded app.
my issue with posts like these is the ppl frequenting these sites already know this, its directed at the wrong audience
Just got so excited and overwhelmed relearning webdev stuff after many years, my prior experience was godaddy, and the last few days I learn hella and set up some vps, tested hella control panels, settled on enhance for managing multiile servers from dfferent sites and crashed halfway through making a website (server didnt crash my energy did)
Its a lot funner and faster to just test them all, grab ventoy throw all the isos on a ventoy usb, spend an hour installing and testing each, see if you like cachyos gaming packages and the wiki, or if you prefer another distro, I would go with a gaming distro the first time around so you figure out what packages you need and may want to keep in the future
