if we're talking hosted services then simply maintaining server mirrors can keep downtime to 0
main server goes off for maintenance, mirrors take over, clients are none the wiser anything ever happened
i also use debian so 'my experience' is reflective of using debian
backups should go without saying
when i do a reinstall it's usually 2 years old so software lint is more prevalent (old packages, configs, logs)
last one stayed on debian bullseye from shortly after it was the new stable up until bookworm was
