My instance had the same problem, the problem was that Hetzner (where I host my server) by default is not permitting outbound smtp ports. For me the solution was to use alternative port and even that a starttls alternative port which AWS SES luckily supports (that is what I am using for smtp server). Alternative would be also to just ask Hetzner to unblock the port (people have reported success with this method).

Yeah its annoying a bit, but honestly people need to know better then to be triggered on few extra question marks.
I am running Windows 11 (and before Windows 10) for years, using Steam, GOG, Epic, Origin. Have over 300 games, probably played 100 of them over the years. Never been blocked by any Anti Cheat software - in fact I would love to hear who has been banned and look into the details. Also I am unsure why people say that there Windows VMs inefficient, I would love to see some statistics about that.
I use GTX1080 passthrough-ed with Qemu/KVM and AC Valhalla works with over 60FPS on Ultra.
Proper setup requires some time of tinkering... Make sure you setup hugepages, proper CPU pinning, you need to play around with kernel boot params, direct passtrhrough of NVMe helps... Googling helps a lot...
I was a distro hopper once, then I saw the light of NixOS...
First of all you are probably talking about NixOS and not Nix as a server. I was using servers in cloud as well as machines at home, using Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Fedora, Arch and even FreeBSD.
In the cloud I was using mainly two types of setup: Kubernetes and as a normal VPS and then services on top. Over the years I discovered that my favorite setup is NixOS on VPS for my services. You might ask why NixOS and not Kubernetes, does not K8s ecosystem supports all the world's services and you might be right. But the my argument is that NixOS is way simpler, cheaper, and with less hassle, even if some services do not exist yet for NixOS, they are simple to integrate. Also my setup is reproducible with just backups of /etc/nixos/ directory and /var/lib/ both of which can exist as storage volumes. At the end, I am very happy with my setup, and do not miss conventional OS-es and other cloud solutions.
if you use starttls, just use
tls_type: "starttls"
in your config
