It seems they may be deleting comments urging them to address Madison's experience on their apology video too.

It's a known issue with tailscale. It drains my battery pretty bad as well. I had to opt for wireguard for remote access instead.

I'll boldly say that unless you have a multitude of games relying on anticheat, 90% of your game library works out of the box or just needs a little tinkering with Proton.

I have been self-hosting a local Invidious instance for several months. I watch videos from it every day and I've had no IP ban so far.

For me, I know it doesn't offer much privacy if its locally hosted, but the latency compared to using public instances is much better. Which may sound stupid, but at least I also don't have to depend on another person for their instance.

This is just a small list, but plugins like beetcamp, deezer, and lastgenre among others have been helpful to tag music. If you use deemix or buy music from bandcamp those plugins are extremely helpful. Lastgenre needs some configuring and monitoring to make sure irrelevant tags aren't assigned to songs though.

If you're into scripting, calliope is another tool that can interact with Spotify, lastfm, and musicbrainz (though musicbrainz stuff in my experience was unreliable). I'm using calliope to scrap together a solution to sync my local favorites in my music library and sync that to Spotify. It can also create playlists for Spotify from your local music library, and get Lastfm recommendations based on an artist or song.

Privacy, Windows 11, and the fact that my system is more stable running Linux. I could count on a BSOD happening once or twice a week due to a driver issue with Windows 10. I still get strange crashes on Linux, but much less often.

Alpine Linux would be one of the lightest distributions to make the most of your hardware. I use it myself to host my docker services.

I look forward to using LinkWarden eventually! My current bookmark setup involves both LinkDing and WallaBag which is a little quirky. Hopefully soon Wallabag exports could be imported and I'd be good to migrate.

I just started toying with Arkane Linux. It's fairly easy enough to make your own image and they provide some simple templates you can use if you don't want Gnome. To me, the greatest thing about Arch is the AUR and unfortunately it doesn't support AUR packages out of the box. This might not be a problem since you could mostly get along with flatpaks or distrobox. It might be a chore for someone new to Arch to have to compile something straight from the AUR that your device needs to function, like what I've had to do.

Kagi is great. Excellent search results for the most part, better than either DDG or Google in my experience.

I didn't realize how important Reddit was to get quality results from Google. Without Reddit almost the whole 1st page is just SEO optimized sites. It's just ironic that alternate search engines are better than Google now.
