It scratches the surface of the most obvious stuff. I'd only add running apps in isolation (docker or adduser) and maybe fail2ban.

Are you going to elaborate, or…?

[–] Technoguyfication@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

No, because pretty much all of it is bad. Elaborating would be meaningless.

Explaining why something is bad advice is as important as saying it is. Otherwise it’s just a pissing match between two random people on the internet. Why also keeps people from making similar problems.
