Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

How do you change anything about the OS/do updates? iirc nixos requires elevated privileges for that?
There are many ways to do many things in nixos
For updates you can do automatic updates
Also, there are many deployment tools, like deploy-rs, morph, colmena, bento. They all have different approaches. Some you use ssh to deploy a remote system. Some just fetch the configuration and autodeploy it.
There are many ways how you can play with this. So you can disable sudo, and deploy with ssh only from some or a specified ip. Or you can keep ssh for root disabled and just deploy home-manager. It's really a lot, you imagination is the only limit
P.s. or you can just generate an image from a trusted machine, and flash it onto the device you want, unlimited number of ways
