I’m having trouble staying on top of updates for my self hosted applications and infrastructure. Not everything has auto updates baked in and some things you may not want to auto update. How do y’all handle this? How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? Are there e.g. feeds for specific applications I can subscribe to via RSS or email?

    How do I do it? Everything’s installed and updated via pacman/the AUR, including python packages and nextcloud apps. The only thing I don’t install via that way is Firefox addons.

      The only thing I don’t install via that way is Firefox addons.

      Any specific reason why? Yesterday I installed LibreWolf and saw at the same time a few addons in the AUR.

      Do you know what’s the difference from an AUR addon or the official Firefox addon repo?

      I guess It would be for security reasons because you never know if someone has tempered with the addon.

        Simply because I haven’t bothered searching for the extensions I have in the AUR. And some extensions aren’t in there (namely 7tv, augmented steam, blacklist autoclose, defund wikipedia, kagi, peertube companion, tampermonkey and unload tabs).
