What's your "base" stack of choice?
What's your "base" stack of choice?
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.

I try to have most of the common parts setup with ansible. Over time, keep adding more and more. This is useful specially for things you may not do, or need, often and that is not as fresh on your mind how you set it up last time.
Any configuration management system would work; I find ansible is very approachable and fast to get productive with it.
