how do you manage your server? (lemmy.zip)

I usually connect with my server via ssh in a terminal and run basic commands. What's a better, more efficient and modern way of doing that? Especially considering ai and documentation along the way? I wonder if there's a better approach than "connect from remote and act local". Is there a method to "code local and push to remote"?

I use a fedora server with podman, caddyfile and vi.

I deploy with ansible keys and install ssh with a keys-only config and only ansible access.

Then I run some standard installs and configs with ansible and all future updates to apt, apk and docker are done with one ansible playbook.

I don't include the ansible host itself in the automation, nor my workstation, just to prevent everything from being broken at once if something goes wrong.
