Don’t forget to mention Linux. Literally eveywhere.

Those “Solar generator” systems are all grossly overpriced. Look at something like this instead

According to the fedidb, it’s about the same.

The answer is (currently) ~42k monthly active users.

Is it true that if you don’t use it, you lose it?

A note: I have entirely automated background updates. I have no idea how often it checks, or how often it updates.

This is one place where AI actually makes sense

Hence it is not a reasonable solution.

No one’s hating on anything. If you actually read my comment I expressed precisely the opposite, while answering OPs question.

Like call up someone in another building ‘hey plug the jet into tower X so I can remote in?’

The whole idea is you don’t need anyone local. You leave it plugged in 24/7 so that’s it’s accessible remotely, as needed.

All those TLDs cost money

Point three: not true

Yes it is

My blog is TLD

I didn’t say every service was this way

what’s the problem with a subdomain?

Nothing. The problem is when they make you use both.

Nothing in your comment would make mine “inaccurate”.

Some of these points are inaccurate.

…any specific ones?

the XMPP chat is more responsive

I didn’t even know there was an XMPP chat, but any chat seems like an awful way to get support…

timezone can cause delays

We’re not talking about hours here, we’re talking about days/weeks or months.

1. Unable to host apps without exposing them to the web
2. Despite a simplified GUI, a lot of the system is still dependent on CLI
3. they make you use subdomains and / as well. Like blog.website.com/blog
4. Outdated apps (some much more than others)
5. Poor/no support when something goes wrong
6. An entire Debian generation behind (not sure if that one matters but it is weird)
7. Can’t run multiple of the same service

I’ve tried them all and it’s overall the best but still has a whole lot of room for improvement

You don’t need to add a motherboard, case or PSU, the first item is an entire mini PC, minus ram and storage.

The RAM and storage was just a suggestion. Change them up as you prefer.

There’s also another model if you don’t need HDD that comes with an aluminum heatsink/enclosure, for an extra $20.

CWWK N100 - $152

1x16GB Teamgroup elite DDR5-5600 = $37

3x2TB Samsung 990 EVO - $255 1x128GB Patriot P300 -$14 (4TB storage + 2TB parity drive and 128GB for OS)

$7 for some heatsinks for the SSDs.

Total = $465 USD

No idea what those prices look like in Europe.

You also have the option of expanding with 2 SATA ports.

Stage Manager is the one where it zooms out to show all of your open windows and switch between them.

Gotcha. I like Saber for handwritten notes. It also supports photos and PDFs, so I will get some meeting notes, upload them into Saber and then handwrite notes on top of the PDFs.

It is cross-platform and has native NextCloud support, and they’ll even give you a server to use if you sponsor the project.

I see. Deb is definitely the most package-friendly.

GNOME combines Mac’s “stage manager” and “spotlight” into a single function activated by the Super key (windows key/command). It’s really excellent and probably my favorite thing about GNOME.

Atomic distros were created to solve exactly that problem. I like Bazzite because it also has seamless background updates (among other reasons).

I’m looking for good apps support so Debian?

Any Debian fork will run .deb packages. But plain Debian is just very vanilla and will be missing a lot of stuff you’ll probably want.

Wobbly windows (yes useless but cool lol) Good customization KDE connect support (a must) Krunner or equivalent (MacOS like search)

These are all going to be features of the DE, and you can install any DE on any distro (AFAIK).
