i would say no. Debian, imo, is a bit outdated in concept for this usecase.

aside from the “if it’s not broke” advice, i’d say if one is building a new home server today, use podman containers and something like opensuse MicroOS.

In the present, but in the past too.

yes. it’s just an old way to approach things. it still works, but IMO there are simpler, more elegant solutions available today.

it gets recommended because of the Toyota Corolla rep, not because it’s still the best choice in 2026.
