I was interested in hosting a Lemmy instance, but im not sure what company offers a good server (price/quality), do you have any suggestions? Thanks.

    I’ve seen the image in the Hetzner interface, but I wonder what’s the benefit of using Arch as a server? I use Arch on my personal computers, but I’d be a bit afraid of using it as a production server. Is it that people want to use what they are used to?

        what do you do if it breaks and your backup doesn’t restore properly? You’d have to back up every single file including the OS with Arch because it’s completely non-deterministic.

        If you want a rolling release OS on servers you’re probably better off with NixOS.
