I usually connect with my server via ssh in a terminal and run basic commands. What's a better, more efficient and modern way of doing that? Especially considering ai and documentation along the way? I wonder if there's a better approach than "connect from remote and act local". Is there a method to "code local and push to remote"?

I use a fedora server with podman, caddyfile and vi.

It depends on what I’m doing I suppose. I run my main VM on Proxmox, so I mainly use its web interface for any VM work. For all the containers within, I’ve been really loving Dockhand lately, it’s just as easy to use as Portainer, it even checks for updates for me AND gives me a link for the release notes so I can decide whether to upgrade or not.

Most other things like file transfers or editing my Caddyfile I do through SSH. Can’t beat simplicity sometimes!
