Some assembly required

I have the opposite experience. For 15 years I've been installing windows on laptops and desktops. Never did I had to 'solve' driver issues. They were either easy to find, by clicking 'search in windows update' or were supported directly through windows itself. No need to solve anything...

The opposite was true for my few Linux (Ubuntu and Linux mint) adventures. Every time something would just not work. The most frustrating for me was the broken sleep function. There was no way to get my laptop to sleep properly. It would wake up at random times or just not boot anymore thereafter.

Just saying that these kind of things really depend on what you work with and what you want to get out of a system

Ah that is good to know. I really appreciate the tip!

I like your suggestion! I have a Proxmox server running. I'm I right to understand that rclone or duplicati take care of the file encryption? This would mean no easy way to access files in your backup, but I don't see that as a problem

I'm running it on my NAS. I would like a non local backup of my files.

Encrypting the files not really an option for me. I backup the photos but simultaneously they are used in PhotoPrism for collection, meta data changes, etc. Or I need to think about adopting another workflow...

Thanks, should have looked there of course, but I'm interested in personal experiences as well.

Thanks for the suggestion! I have protonmail (paid) and I think I have 500GB storage space currently. Unfortunately that is insufficient space, because I'm going towards the 1TB. I'll have a look at the other plans, perhaps they offer more space :)

And add a Youtube shorts block while you're at it.

There is an add on, and it works well! Firefox add-on

I use Keepass2Android. It works for me

I don't have a response either yet... Might get interesting!
