Please be kind! I am a self-taught Linux user and by no means an expert. My goal with this guide is to help newcomers to Linux have an easier and more secure start.

To all the experts out there, please be kind and do share your tips and observations. I am happy to keep updating the article to make the self-hosting world more secure.

OP said he could not install another distro, this clearly shows the skill level, and even if you disclaim it at the begining, should people with little to no experience writr guides for the general public? Just because you figured out addition should not mean you can write a book about how to learn math.

Hmm. I'm not sure what you are trying to debate, /u/ElevenNotes. OP wrote a damn good guide, and looking at their other work - they are doing a great job at contributing to this community. Their post was also featured in the weekly newsletter over at selfh.st. This is a hobby sub with a contributing community. I urge you to treat it like one.
