I always use distro packaging, if it’s available.

I use Deluge. It can be used with i2p or tor, and can be set up to route everything through your local proxy.

Different people have different experiences for lots of reasons. Like I used to have constant problems with Windows that took days to fix, and some people never had any problems. It depends on your hardware, software, settings, what you’re doing with it…with every OS.

So annoying. I have to restart Freetube so many times to play a video.

I’ve heard good things about Infomaniak. Whatever works for you!

Nextcloud offers a free account for home users through one of their partner companies, if you go to their signup page. That includes storage space, calendar access, and the ability to sync your calendar & contacts. If you want to pick your own provider, there are reviews on many in the Nextcloud forum. I’ve used Woelkli’s Nextcloud instance for years and never had any problem with them, but I think they may not currently be open to new accounts.

Nice, haven’t seen this one before. So, that’s four now?

I use Nextcloud’s calendar, which works with any client that’s compatible with CalDAV, and my ISP’s email service with AnonAddy and SimpleLogin redirects.

I’ve played WoW on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. No problems there.
