yes. it’s just an old way to approach things. it still works, but IMO there are simpler, more elegant solutions available today.

it gets recommended because of the Toyota Corolla rep, not because it’s still the best choice in 2026.

yeah, in the past.

i would say no. Debian, imo, is a bit outdated in concept for this usecase.

aside from the “if it’s not broke” advice, i’d say if one is building a new home server today, use podman containers and something like opensuse MicroOS.

LOVE podman

13 with podman on openSUSE MicroOS.

i used to have a few more but wasn’t using them enough so i cut them.

no really, no. because what you want to keep is subjective. like @Cerothen@lemmy.ca said, which is what i did, you just dump and import. but any curating is a manual effort.

what problem?

Sxan is being the change he wants to see in the world
