I use Alpine Linux. It's exceptionally stable, great for pretty much any device and is best for small VPS with limited space/ram. Nice package manager too, but it is limited in packages.

It works great for me since I only use docker containers, but some things outside docker may require something like Debian instead.

Thanks for your work! I moved when I could finally import Wallabag bookmarks, and I'm loving everything so far.

I use Arkane Linux, which is based on Arch but is immutable. Every update is a new install. You can easily configure custom images to deploy for your specific wants or needs. It's nice for keeping up to date with Arch while keeping how my machine is configured declared in an image. You can always roll back if something was wrong with the image you deployed too.

If you're running the most recent kernel, I'd recommend moving to linux-lts. I have slightly similar specs, KDE Wayland, 6900 xt and 5800, and I had issues with games straight up crashing out my PC on the latest kernel.

If they get their hands on an LTSC ISO they can hold out on Windows 10 a little longer.

I'd say in a good bit of cases better than Google now. Each time I've resorted to Google because I think I'm getting lackluster results, it's got the same results but also a bunch of SEO dogshit I have to sort through. Kagi's personal site ranking and filters make it worth it too.

It's a paid service that in return respects privacy, and has results as good as Google's.

Google doesn't say "Fuck you, Pay me" because you are the product.

Intel gave more detail to Tom's Hardware and they updated the article up top. This still sounds a little disingenuous to me, like they're still trying to minimize the issue with words and no action.

Gamer's Nexus has a recent video with some possible explanations.

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 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.

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.
