Important to note that Mullvad has stopped allowing port forwarding, if that is important to your VPN needs. I'm giving ProtonVPN a try now (though they don't make Linux usage as friendly as I'd like)
I just want them to release half of the things they've announced to this point. Specifically waiting on the Proton.
LTS kernel would help a little, but it also still receives updates.Why are you running Arch on a server if you are concerned with frequent updates, though?
Super interesting to me that you swap between Debian and Ubuntu. Is there any rhyme or reason to why you use one over the other?
