It sounds like you’ve got the right plan. I use Anubis and fail2ban along with some manual rules on nginx to block AI bots. In my experience Anubis helps a lot, and you can monitor nginx logs over time to for scans and such to make additional ban rules on.
I’m pretty happy with Debian as my server’s OS. I recently gave in to temptation and switched from stable to testing, on my home systems I run Arch because i like to have the most up to date stuff, but with my servers that’s a bit less important, even so debian testing is usually pretty stable itself anyway so I’m not worried much about things breaking because of it.
Yeah, used to be a big problem in some places like florida back when you could just ovveride dns settings and get free internet off any modem. It requires custom firmware and other things these days that make reselling such a free hookup impractical, but thats not gonna stop me from helping people do it for free.

I guess its time to start hacking and cloning cable modems again. Gotta fight these fuckers somehow.

Im only aware of the main one, is there alternatives? Do you mean like themes?
I only setup my server a month ago. it seemed like continuwuity was the most active so thats what i went with.
Its mostly solid blue state leftists who refuse to vote dem. Them voting would literally make no difference at all in the national outcome, and when it would have mattered in primaries the democrat party decided they knew better anyway.
Unless you think all the people vocally refusing to vote dem are in swing states, your problem is with the rigged primary and electoral collage system, not leftist in places like california who dont want to support team blue.
I havent tried with caddy but i might be able to help you get it working if you wanna chat some time. My contact info is on my website.
My goal was to have no ports exposed on my home network so the proxy is on the VPS. My home server connects over wireguad to the vps, then all the traffic is routed over wireguard to the home server which only listens on wireguard.
I rent a cheap $5/mo VPS and use it to run a wireguard server with wgeasy and nginx proxy manager. Everything else runs on my home server connected by wireguard.
