Ask HN: How do you secure your home server?
I am getting into self-hosting and it seems it takes an awful lot of work to secure your general-purpose Linux distribution.[0] I am surprised that the default seems to be to do all of this by hand.
How do you deploy a secure Linux home server? Are there distros that are pre-configured for this purpose? Do you use any Ansible playbooks (or other scripts)? Or do you indeed implement all security measures manually?

Any idea as to how major CEXs generate, store and use keys and seed phrases?
1) Probably on a Linux server running bitcoind? How to properly secure a server is a large topic that I won't dive into.

Want to use Linux as main OS but help on hardening it.
As mentioned, there is some great software here https://www.privacytools.io/ and nearly everything you need to know to get started here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Security (useful even if you don't use Arch/Arch based distros, some of the stuff may be overkill and you need to figure out where to draw the line yourself in terms of tradeoffs). This guide, although it is geared towards servers also has some useful tips that apply to any linux system and is a little easier to follow https://github.com/imthenachoman/How-To-Secure-A-Linux-Server

Vps ubuntu?
In your service control panel, there should be information about your VPS IP, username and password. Enable Windows 10 SSH client then on the command line/powershell window type ssh [email protected], it should then ask for your password, type it, don't be alarmed by the lack of typing indicator, and you should be connected afterward. Read and implement https://github.com/imthenachoman/How-To-Secure-A-Linux-Server before you do anything else.

Oracle always free questions
Aside from securing your Oracle Cloud account (2FA, complex & unique password) you also need to ensure your email account is similarly secure. Then, you need to understand how to secure a Linux install and your selected framework (google for 'hardening $yourFramework')

How would I create a ghost blog if I already hosted my site on bluehost ?
to learn about VPS honestly I don't know of a single complete guide, although you can probably find one by yourself out there. but my personal progress went like this: first of all, learn about the Linux structure (not anything too complex, just how folders structures work, permissions, groups) and also basic Linux commands (mkdir, rm, ls, bash, ...). then learn about APT and how to install packages and update the system, or add external repositories (such as nodeJS). then learn about nginx/apache and reverse proxies, with the UFW (ubuntu's firewall). finally, look at this awesome guide on how to secure your server: How to Secure a Linux Server. you don't need to do everything on there, but it definitely has good practices and suggestions.
