2 months ago This can maybe a informal hint, but it should not be a warning. I would prefer a security hint if the file is writable
We aren't classifying it as an error (red) nor a warning (yellow). It's info message:
The info hint is there because people set this option then can't figure out why they can't change things, perform updates, etc.
So I guess one of the issues is the heading on the Administration settings->Overview page. :shrug:
Perhaps it's time to change Security & setup warnings to Setup checks or something.

Bug description
Reopening https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/29173, as it is still present in 29.0.2.2
The admin overview page displays a warning if read only config is set to true. This is not an actual security issue, nor does it prevent the application from functioning, it should not be a warning.
I have an upgrade script that manages sets this to false as needed (via a container) so the main processes can have everything mounted read-only, as they should.
instanceid, the application version, and maintenance should also not be set in this way but those are independent issues.
