Hi Joshua,
Thanks for following up on this! Minor comments:

I’d start the sentence with something like “To run Guix on a server
hosted by @uref{https://www.linode.com/, Linode}, start with a …”.
(That makes it clear what we’re talking about, what Linode is, etc.)
> +distro as a way to bootstrap Guix. Create your @code{SSH} keys.
[...]
> +Be sure to add your @code{SSH key} for easy login to the remote server.
[...]
> +Power the @code {Linode} down. In the @code{Linode's}
I realize I wasn’t clear: @code is for code snippets. When referring to
Linode (the service/company) or SSH (the protocol), just write it as is,
without @code.
You would use @code for a command (like @code{rm -rf /foo}) and @file
for a file name (like @file{/dev/sdc}). Text enclosed in @code or @file
is rendered with a fixed-width font and possibly a different background
color.
> +"..." and select "Edit", then on that menu add to /dev/sdc the "Guix"
^
@file here.
> +root@@<your-server-ip-here>}. (You can find your server ip address in
^
@var{your-server-ip-here}
And s/ip/IP/.
Let me know if you can take care of those last (I promise!) changes.
Thank you!
Ludo’.
