Arch Linux (like some other distros) also has a security tracker: https://security.archlinux.org/

the init command probably only works in Debian nowadays givin it's a thing from the sysvinit era
Latte Dock users will need to say goodbye then
you probably have old hardware in that case
the latest kernel releases greatly helped with the effiency of newer AMD and Intel (Hybrid) CPUs which can give you a longer battery usage on laptops
My Arch Linux Homeserver and VPS which ran since years are like: "huh?"
Not a single Ubuntu upgrade failure on my book anymore 🤞
hope this helps with the dumbster fire of the virtualbox version in the official Ubuntu repositories
(virtual box basically "breaks" on Ubuntu LTS once a newer HWE kernel gets released unless you install a newer version of it, leading to hundreds of support threads every time this happens)
I'm using Caddy (sometimes in a container or most of the time as system package) as reverse proxy mostly for containers
I try to minimize non-container services but they work well with Caddy too
Traefik is a tad more complex (still nowhere near Apache2 levels though) but scales more easily espcially if you only run containers and start/stop them programatically
if you are open to learn something new: Caddy webserver has a dead simple config, fetches tls certs by default for you and works with crowdsec too
If we are talking Silverblue then podman is your pick for everything Flatpack "can't"
there is no big push for cli flatpack since this already a solved cause with containers for podman/docker/kubernetes
however no matter how you approach this you will always have dependency security issues
unless you built every flatpack/container yourself you are at the whim of the creator of it to keep every dependecy updated
this is already a known vulnerability factor in the container sphere on topbl of the threat of 0-day exploits
chances are you already used the external nvidia kernel module prior
the dkms package is just the "catch all" way which works on most setups
(at least on Arch Linux)

If your AMD card is older than your latest linux distro release it's plug and play, no driver installation required
Wayland works pretty well on most desktop environments too
beware fresh released AMD cards in combination with long term release distros like Debian stable, you most likely will need the driver from the AMD website (not recommended)
