I went with Ubuntu server and was pleasantly surprised when it offered to pull my pubkey off my github profile for ssh. A nice touch that I haven't seen in other servers flavors of various distros.

Thanks for the offer! I might take you up on that :-) If you have a Matrix handle and hang out in certain rooms, please DM me and I'll ~~harass~~ reach out to you there.
Here we go with "slams" again.

PS. Try out lsd if you haven't already - a nice ls/eza/exa replacement.
How do you like crowdsec? I've used it on a tiny VPS (2 vcpu / 1 GB RAM) and it hogs my poor machine. I also found it to have a bit of learning curve, compared to fail2ban (which is much simpler, but dosen't play well with Caddy by default).
Would be happy to see your Caddy / Crowdsec configuration.
I see everyone else have already chimed in on whats so great about Caddy (because it is!), one thing that has been a thorn in my side though is the lack of integration of fail2ban since Caddy has moved on from the old common log format and moved on to more modern log formats. So if you want to use a IPS/IDS, you'll have to either find a creative hack to make it work with fail2ban or rely on more modern (and resource heavier) solutions such as crowdsec.
This is what I use too, but with a disposable phone number and email.
Certain surface models run linux fine, but I wouldn't recommended it as a linux laptop as it requires solving several issues before you get a working computer.
Anytime. Their discord community there is very active and helpful. If you'd like help or feedback without getting muddied by discord, feel free to inbox me.
If you decide to take the plunge, I highly recommend the programming course on mooc.fi.
I too loathe LinkedIn, but have to use it. To make myself feel better, I spend an equal amount of time on shlinkedin afterwards.
If you do, please consider supporting webhooks or ntfy. Look forward to test this!
