Do y'all use root login or just sudo?

Obviously Ubuntu people this doesn't apply.

Assuming you’re using Linux for professional use, why would you ever log in as root (unless need local access)? Bad security practice.

But also, assuming we’re talking strictly server usage, no need to ever log in. Use automation and make your infra immutable.
