What are your go-to brands for any electronic, networking, computing accessories or peripherals?
Hi all, since ya'll are self hosters, I'm sure you all deal with all sorts of different pieces of hardware, accessories, peripherals, and what not; just wondering if you could please share your favorite, solid, "go to" brands for overall things you need for your setup such as cables (all types), adapters, dongles, power accessories, hubs & docks, flash drives, you name it! I'm sure it varies depending on exactly what type of equipment you're looking for but just looking for overall good brands to stick with for such things. I obviously know the main ones like Anker, Cable Matters, Ugreen, maybe Belkin, Idk. Would love to hear your recommendations! Thank you

Same, I am also a Linux user. What are your favorite brands?
Same here, I mostly let work buy Dell but at home I mostly bought Lenovo.
I have a Dell laptop, so maybe I should stick with dell devices if I add anything more. Currently searching for a docking station, so Dell is probably my top choice.... Not what about all the cabling?! lol
I like the Dell docking station, one cable for charging, external screen, mouse, keyboard, audio devise, SD card reader, camera. Back during my MacBook days plugging everything in and out was a terrible experience.
Yup that sounds ideal! i've had so much trouble with the ONLY ports on my laptop, being two usb-c ports smh. Just over the years of wear and tear they both became loose and stopped working. Had a shop replace one and he salvaged the other with adding a bit more solder. I just want to get devices away from these dog gone ports and onto a dock lol
