I checked and I have at least some of the ones wikipedia lists as missing if I didn't read it wrong.

Louis Rossmann recently made a video about their terrible customer support among other things.

I can't tell if you are saying only ripping content helps preserve it or that seeding does too. I download things but seed them as long as possible. (Technically until I run out of disk space, but that hasn't happened yet and I think I will upgrade before it does.) Considering how many pirates download things and keep seeding, I think the pirates that don't help preserve stuff could be the minority.

I don't have the originals, but I am happy to say I have all of the 1963 and 2005 Doctor Whos (with the exception of some new stuff... I should really get sonarr.) They are on i2p and I am still seeding if anyone wants them.

Good point with the various frontends, but please refer to my edit.

Have you tried macos? Seriously though, in Debian you just type 'sudo apt install program,' that is about as simple as it gets. Also opensuse allows you to not install yast with like 2 clicks in the installer, and all the GUI tools are just wrappers for terminal tools that they also include. I am not saying this to be insulting, but I honestly don't think you know enough about Linux to know what you are looking for. If you do want to try Linux, just try a beginner distro like mint.

Edit: upon reading some comments, I see that you mean apt is complicated under the hood, not difficult to use. You could try gentoo if you don't mind long installs. It compiles from source so that is about as simple as package management gets.

Thanks. I don't currently have any raid or backup set up, so I should probably do that before it becomes a problem.

Sorry, I have no idea.

I installed it on a pixel 7a recently, and it was pretty idiot proof. I did manage to slightly bork the install but it was easily unborked. I know there are apps with issues but I haven't found any. Sandboxed google play allows running google play apps easily, though you must use an account (to my knowledge). If you don't end up liking it, there is an official Google Android image that you can go back to. I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

I have something 10 years old for jellyfin only, (other light stuff too, not important) and it handles it fine. No hardware acceleration but the CPU can keep up for just me and 1 friend using it. I got it for 50 bucks on eBay and it rocks. I don't know about Minecraft servers though.

Edit: It didn't come with drives. Don't ever trust old drives.

You should be able to change the nameserver value in /etc/resolv.conf. You may need a restart for it to take effect but that should work.

This sounds like a slow drive except you said it's on an m.2. If you just switched recently enough that this wouldn't be a major inconvenience, I would try a different distro. You haven't said anything about your use case, so I can't make a specific recommendation, but distrochooser.de could help with that.

They are for pedantic literature people to argue about, duh.

Yeah, I didn't think it would work, but thought I should suggest it in case it would.

I doubt this will work, but as a weird troubleshooting step you could try pipewire. I am stupid but I have had pulseaudio create weird crackling before. I use opensuse leap and it took less than 5 min to install.

Yeah I saw this on fdroid and got it set up. Sending a text to request location feels a little clunky to me but it looks like a solid option.

I know tiles exist but I don't know if they are better than Apple's stuff with regard to privacy. They do work on Android though.

Looks interesting. I already have a server set up so I could give it a try. I think I will wait a while to see if anyone suggests something a little easier.

I would prefer not to use google services, but thanks for the suggestion.
