I need a server OS that basically maintains itself (automatic updates… ideally automatic rollback on failure but at least manual rollback support).

So I’m looking into Fedora CoreOS but very few VPS hosts seem to support it (wish Hetzner did… that would be ideal for me).

The other one I’m considering is OpenSuse MicroOS.

Any other suggestions? Ideally ones supported by at least one VPS provider with speedy instance setup + an API.

I feel like this is where Debian Stable shines. I've run Debian servers for years with automatic updates. I'm sure there's an easy way to do roll backs but it never came up for me.
Unfortunately I've had issues with Debian, specifically with systemd. I've moved to Devuan, packages are even slower to update than on Debian stable but at least I don't have any hard-to-debug issue with systemd.
