Sounds more like an ad than a recipe to me. Note that "latest stable"
means "I enjoy being part of a crypto-mining botnet and would like to
dedicate more harware towards reaching the 3 degree target" when
speaking about rolling release distribution models.
Then again... "cryptocurrency payments are back"[1].
Cheers

I'd be less suspicious to promote Cyberia, a 501(c)(3) non-profit
organization providing the general public with Guix System virtual
private servers than DigitalOcean. Capsul's approach to providing Guix
System is a better approach than using some cloud infrastructure provider
that doesn't care to make Guix System a first-class citizen. I think we
should promote grassroots organizations like this and be more suspicious
of companies funded by VC money instead (DigitalOcean, Github, etc...).
all best,
jgart

That is a broad label and no indicator of quality whatsoever. It
applies to organizations genuinely interested in the betterment of
society, happy faces painted on top of companies taking weird business
decisions (looking at you, Mozilla), and right-wing think tanks spewing
propaganda while claiming to be an academical institution in name only
and accepting huge amounts of cash to speak on behalf of big oil
against any regulations that would impact their profits.

While in principle I agree that all companies are sketchy always, the
cookbook still is not a place for endorsements, but for technical
solutions. Your contribution is the former. To be anything but you
should at the very least guide users through the process of purging
password-less root access.

An additional option could be adding support to "guix deploy" for
automating some of the processes.

I agree that advertising a service provider isn't really the right place
in the cookbook. It's nice to know it exists though!
Thanks,
Closing.
