I had some bigger personal events which prevented me to do much here and a lockbit attack at my workplace which took all my time.

Docker

Blackbox Testing in Prometheus/Grafana helps to monitor frontends and their performance from a the user side. As it won't depend on specific applications or middleware it can be used everythere.

Kubuntu: As my employer enforces me to use specific malware and virus tools which are not available on all distributions I had to change from Manjaro/Arch Linux back to a Debian based distribution. As I used KDE a lot in the last years I want to stuck to it. So the top distributions based on Debian with KDE are Kubuntu, KDE Neon or plain Debian with KDE.

I selected Kubuntu because of it's support and stability. KDE Neon is not possible for me because the neccessary malware tools are not all running with it. Also I could not use the newest Ubuntu 22.4 and had to step back to Ubuntu 20.4 to get f-secure running without twwaks.
