I use NixOS, which is kind of a middle thing. The OS is generally immutable, except through one central config. This allows to tweak the OS to exactly the way you want it, whilst preventing any accidental changes and allowing atomic rollbacks.

Learning Nix configuration syntax is a bit of a bump in the road, but once you’ve got that it’s smooth sailing

That’s fair enough

If you are cool with using Cloudflare, you can use Argo Tunnel to expose HTTP(S) services to the internet with DDOS protection and all of Cloudflares features.

They’ve made it free some time ago, you just need a pc/server in your network running the cloudflare agent software.

That’s fair, it’s a bummer i live in Germany otherwise you’d have my vote lmao

I use it to host one of my self-hosting servers at Hetzner, and I’ve really enjoyed the experience. Especially having the ability to roll back when i mess up is a life saver.

In my experience NixOS is really stable which makes it perfect for running on a server.
