I'm getting the following issue, which I cannot make heads or tails of.
sudo systemctl restart sshd
Job for sshd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status sshd.service" and "journalctl -xeu sshd.service" for details.

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Include drop-in configurations
Include /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/*.conf
# This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file. See
# sshd_config(5) for more information.
# This sshd was compiled with PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin
# The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped with
# OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where
# possible, but leave them commented. Uncommented options override the
# default value.
The default is to check both .ssh/authorized_keys and .ssh/authorized_keys2
# but this is overridden so installations will only check .ssh/authorized_keys
AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys
# override default of no subsystems
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
And nothing worth mention in sshd_conf.d

Seems to be missing a leading `# ` to be an actual commented line...

Looks like my response was not sent. Thanks for spotting it. For the life of me I didn't notice, nor did stupidGPT.
