Thanks!

Sorta looks similar to netdata which I recently setup and holy crap is it confusing. I have no idea what to look at and what to do. Didn’t realize its that tricky for a newb.

Fascinating stuff! A tad confusing lol but definitely learnable. So to me, selinux and app armor sound similar to firewalls… On the surface at least

Not a bad approach actually lol. I’ve pretty much done the same with virtually no backup. I never have much to save on my computers.

Great advice. Its just that I’m sorta a eager learner when it comes to tech, especially the privacy and security side and I honestly don’t always know what I’m doing or I’ll read the wrong guide to set things up and I end up getting lost or confused or things just straight up don’t work. So I for sure have some wires crossed somewhere and some roadblocks causing issues here and there. I have recently learned more about ansible and chef and I indeed need to research. Those tools seem quite complex but hey, I’ll try anyway. And as far as selinux goes, I just thought that was one of those thins that automatically comes installed and configured on every OS? Also there’s app armor… Is that in this realm of things too? Is it deemed “good” or necessary to use? Thanks

Yes! I tried tumbleweed before but it seemed quite fragile or maybe over secure? Idk if I’m explaining it correctly, but it seemed like everything I tried to do on the OS ended up breaking the system so I has to keep starting over and try reconfiguring things. Probably just learning curve issues

Never even heard of it, gonna do some research. Thank you

Sweet, thanks. Gonna take a look

Oh lord that is over my head. I tried messing around with that more advanced stuff but just got lost
