Sharing some lessons I learned from 10 years/millions of users in production. I’ll be in the comments if anyone has any questions!

I hope this series will be useful to the self-hosted and small web crowds—tips for tools to pick and the basics of server management.

I think fans of Nix and NixOS would agree.

Is it too late for, “I use nix btw”? I use it at home and for development.

I planned to focus this blog series on ol’ faithful (Debian), but I could definitely see writing articles on how to use Nix and OpenBSD if people find it helpful.

Well, I guess nixos itself isn't too overcomplicated, but fun begins when you start layering abstractions over abstractions 😁

That’s interesting. I never got started with nix because I thought it’d be too complicated. So looking it up again…
