hi I’m still exploring stuff and I was thinking about nix, with all his stuff, what do you guys think? maybe someone with experience can tell me if I should stay away from that or could be a good choice for privacy, anonimity and security

    Other people will know what bootloader you use, what apps you use, etc. Yeah I guess its not a huge concern, but its something.

      It’s like giving a map of your infrastructure to a hacker, but it depends on your thread model. Most of the attacks on home servers are automated, so it shouldn’t be a consern

      Another thing if your thread model is different, then the situation is not that good, but you can encrypt a lot of stuff, especially when you’re making your config reproducible
