  • Docker to Podman, absolutely. Also checkout using base images instead of random intransparent downstream ones.

    VMs are debatable. They are nice for separating things way better than docker does.

    As distro, NixOS is very custom and you will want to learn its way. Arch does not make sense I think, but you can use anything as a server.

    Otherwise Alma or Debian? Try HeliumOS too! Or uBlue uCore










  • You are looking for an outbound firewall

    Like the others recommended

    OpenSnitch has multiple detection ways, eBPF might require activation in the kernel, there are others too, 4 in total

    For me on NixOS it worked in eBPF and proc mode. NixOS’ weird binary placement makes rules less secure I guess as it can only check commands (if it were nix-native it could use a function for that)

    And I had tons of "unknown process"es which I needed to allow to not break things, which kinda makes the thing useless










  • There is literally not a single useful comment here.

    You have packages from outside the official main repo, in the universe repo.

    You are using a stable Distribution so packages are frozen and need backported security updates.

    You dont get them for the optional universe repos, but if you give them a bit of money (or afaik Ubuntu pro is even free for a few devices) then they will also support these 3rd party packages.

    It is an optional service, they warn you that you use outdated packages, and offer a solution.

    I dont use Ubuntu and Snaps are crap, but this is totally fine.
