Fedi Admins of Lemmy, How do you keep your servers up to date without increasing downtime (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I am honestly kinda curious how exactly you manage your servers and keep them up to date, I feel like there is a linux patch every week or so, which would usually require a reboot. Do you all deploy live patching, how you become aware of critical stuff in your otherwise busy lives, RSS?

My lemmy.fan instance died. Something broke with federation and I've never been able to get it running again, even with a new database and a new subdomain. I gave up for now, at least until better error checking and recovery is implemented.
