I use Fedora Kinoite daily and find it to be the only OS to make sense really.
I find Fedora CoreOS totally confusing (with that ignition file, no anaconda, no user password by default, like how would I set this up anywhere I dont have filesystem access to?)
But there are alternatives. I would like to build my own hardened Fedora server image that can be deployed anywhere (i.e. any PC to turn into a secure and easy out-of-the-box server).
As modern server often uses containers anyways, I think an atomic server only makes sense, as damn Debian is just a pain to use.
Experiences, recommendations?
If you’re on Debian, it’s the tried and true method. The config is dead simple for most upgrades, just un-comment the line in the config file next to the type of upgrades you want, stable or testing. It can take some debugging if you have a package with it’s own APT repo. It’ll just ignore those updates by default.
