OpenSuse Tumbleweed is an excellent choice, if you want the most stable rolling release distro.

High quality OS.

Looks like a great business plan to me.

Edit: Firefox is a great option for more privacy.

Librewolf is a hardened fork of Firefox, but not for everyone. Although I am very happy with it personally.

Yeah, the input thread priority sounds cool and it would be nice on KDE as well, but if you have a faster computer than a potato, I'll guess you won't be needing that kind of "optimization".

This is what I have been doing for years on my Synology box.

Just a handful of Synology apps (mostly backup and snapshot apps) and all the rest of the ecosystem running in Docker. So the main system is bloatfree.

On Linux desktop, mostly flatpaks installations.

Linux Desktop is the future, might as well start to get familiar with it now, why wait?

Just like Linux is the great leader in server space.

If I was forced to use WhatsApp, I would use shelter (or work profile) to separate it from the main profile.

Man, if you really value your privacy you shouldn't use WhatsApp (difficult of course as everyone uses it)

and social media (difficult as everyone use it), except for Lemmy, Mastodon or Signal !!

Privacy is not an easy path as it's against the whole mainstream society.

But its worth embracing, because it's a human right, even if it's not "comfortable" doing so.

Edit: there is of course other ways of communication like regular phone calls or sending SMS instead of WhatsApp messages. So feel free to liberate yourself.

Yeah. Navidrome fucks up your experience. If your id tags are not 100℅ that is.

Folder based music server is the way to go.

Gonic is really too bareboned and really is for low power devices. The better alternative would be Polaris which has a better web interface.

If you have modern hardware (celeron +), Airsonic is the best IMO.

Sorry man.

I swear my comment was not personal!

LOL

LOL!

I9's - 1000w powerdraw for guaranteed boosting capabilities.

Problem is, no thermal solution for this fire hazard is yet to be invented.

I have been running a Synology NAS, 416 play with a Celeron n3060 (I think) dual core with 8GB ram.

It runs all my docker services (around 20) with no issues. Containers are more RAM bound than CPU. Uses about 40-45 ℅ of the RAM.

The only limit is when transcoding as suppose to Direct playing a movie. Then it really taxes the CPU. But I don't really watch movies so its a non issue.

So a NAS doesn't need a beefy CPU if used as a file server. Can be tricky if you run Plex on it though depending on your codecs.

Its still Windows. Even with RGB lipstick, it's still a pig.

Its available as a flatpak for all Distros.

Come on Barbie, let's go party!

Btw!

Eternity - The new name of Infinity for Lemmy, which is a fork from Infinity for Reddit.

I even have imported my settings from the original.

Let me tell you.

I'm running a GTX 1050ti and I'm facing black screen and constant crashes in KDE Plasma when using Wayland.

X11 is working fine.

It might be a driver issue with nVidia on Wayland though.

Yeah I figured.

I'm running a nvidia card on my main rig which runs Linux.

I'm in the thought process of acquiring an AMD Card, so my question was more of a doubt when uninstalling the nvidia drivers so nothing (dependencies etc) is left on the system. Maybe you don't have to baby Linux as windows need. I'm new here by the way ;)

Thus my reflection about Windows, where's uninstalling the drivers, don't get rid of all the junk unless you jump through hoops that I mentioned above. Otherwise you might get bit by conflicts.

You should uninstall the Nvidia drivers for better stability and to make updates a bit faster.

Is that all?

Coming from Windows, where you should either nuke the install or use DDU in safe mode when changing vendors, for smooth sailing to paradise.

Abandonware?
