Unless you have actual tooling (i.e. RedHat erratas + some service on top of that), just don’t even try.

Stop downloading random shit from dockerhub and github. Pick a distro that has whatever you need packaged, install from the repositories and turn on automatic updates. If you need stuff outside of repos, use first party packages and turn on auto updates. If there aren’t any decent packages, just don’t do it. There is a reason people pay RedHat a shitton of money, and that’s because they deal with much of this bullshit for you.

At home, I simply won’t install anything unless I can enable automatic updates. Nixos solves much of it. Two times a year I need to bump the distro version, bump the nextcloud release, and deal with depreciations, and that’s it.

I also highly recommend turning on automatic periodic reboots, so you actually get new kernels running…

Just going off the marketing here:

Git server with CI/CD, kanban, and packages.

From the looks of it, they also seem to bundle the vscode server and a bunch of other stuff. I’m actually kinda surprised they do it with only 1G of RAM.

Not to be that guy, but 12% of 8G isn’t even close to ”heavy as fuck” for a CI/CD and collaboration suite that seems aimed at enterprise users.

You can also tweak how much memory you’d like the jvm to grab with ’-Xms100m’. Any defaults are most likely aimed at much larger deployments than yours.

But yes, Java is a disease.
