From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I got a minimal setup with pihole and nextcloud. I was wondering what else I could do. Share your ideas🙂

There's so much you could do.

have a reverse proxy for your services, as containers
connect then through netbyrd or nebula if you want the FOSS route (or headacalescale)
set up an IDPS, such as fail2ban, snort, etc
Set up a backup job, there's many projects that does this well - check out Borg and kopia.
since we're on linux, try out different shells. Zsh or fish are pretty popular and pretty to look at.
