What's considered nowadays the best practice (in terms of security) for running selfhosted workloads with containers? Daemon less, unprivileged podman containers?

And maybe updating container images with a mechanism similar to renovate with "minimumReleaseTime=7days" or something similar!?

Curious how this differs from Atuin — is there a particular problem it solves better?

Is there any concept of private key rotation or something else? In case a client with a nostr key on it got compromised or something similar? With a traditional password passed logins I would just set a new password from another machine. Regeneration of a new nostr key would mean it's a new account isn't it?

What's the benefit of just using plain owasp modsecurity?

It also exists as a docker container as an nginx reverse proxy with modsecurity extension.

Borg vs Restic vs Kopia ?

They are so similar in features. How do they compare? Which to choose?

Instead of the luks key in tpm you can use a fido2 compatible hardware security usb token. For booting/unlocking it has to be plugged in then you can remove it. This is pretty convenient and secure against many threats like stealing the nas in my opinion.

There is the open source software project gluetun, that allows setting up a containers that are only able to communicate through a vpn network interface in an easy way.

https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun

With this it is not much effort to set up qbittorrent in a privacy secure way.

Has anyone managed to run a non trivial Nest.js application with bun already?

With non trivial I mean an application using a lot of Nest.js features and libraries like TypeORM, Swagger-UI.
