My setup is a barebones Alpine Linux with ssh and docker, and everything I run on it is a container (except backups).
Those I manage remotely (remote Docker context), so the only time I have to log in is to do an update for the few system packages and that’s it. And for that ssh is more than enough

I’m currently in the process of setting up my home server again but this was basically my setup before. Alpine Linux + SSH + Docker and I kept everything to a minimum. This time I’m setting up rootless Podman in place of Docker and as of today the switch over is complete. I’m thinking of trying to use wireguard as a way to secure my ssh port but I’m still trying to learn and figure out if that’s possible. With all the security and trust issues hitting the self-hosting headlines, less and simple is completely fine with me.
