OS Updates on the Corporate Linux Desktop

OS Updates on the Corporate Linux Desktop

Remember when "please update your systems ASAP" emails meant crossing your fingers? There's a better way.
What I built:

→ Self-hosted OSTree repository for Kinoite deployments → Dev/prod pipeline for testing before production → Image-based updates with instant rollback → Complete control over update timing and content
What it solves:

✓ Test updates before deploying to users ✓ Deploy exact tested images (not "similar" ones) ✓ Instant rollback if anything breaks ✓ No dependency on external update servers

Full configuration walkthrough with examples and explanations.
