Proton Mail and Tutanota are great free options.

This is very disappointing.

Bitwarden. It is open source, reliable, easy to use, and compatible with everything. The free version has nearly everything, but I have the paid version to support development because $10 per year is very reasonable.

I do regularly export my password vault to KeePassXC as my backup though.

The $1600 MacBook Pro only has 8GB of RAM. That is completely unacceptable.

This is disappointing as someone who does not want everything centralized under one company. I have tried to diversify the services I use, but this is the second one that Proton has acquired.

SimpleLogin development has essentially been stalled since they were acquired by Proton as resources were used to develop Pass instead. I have a feeling that Standard Notes will be treated similarly.

Graphene OS > iOS > Stock Android

I would look at the Radeon 6700 XT if you only plan on gaming. Despite being a last gen GPU, it outperforms the 4060 for around the same price. The 6700 XT is more comparable to the 4060 Ti. And it also includes Starfield if that is a game you are interested in. Here is a good ranking from Tom's Hardware showing how most GPUs compare to each other.

Voyager is definitely the most polished and great for those who used Apollo for Reddit. It is also very actively developed. For the Android users who do not mind the iOS aesthetic, Voyager is one of the few Lemmy clients on F-Droid.

Thunder is also a great option. I personally prefer its UX more than Voyager, but it is not quite as polished.

Never. I have latex foam pillows that are a solid block, so there is nothing to fluff. It took me a while to get used to how firm they are, but I absolutely love them now.

0 A.D.. It is even open source.

There is also Collabora Online Development Edition or CODE.

DokuWiki for simplicity. Everything is a text file that can just be copied to a web server. It doesn't even require a database. And since all the wiki pages are plaintext markdown files, they can still be easily accessed and read even when the server is down. This is great and why I use DokuWiki for my server documentation as well.

While it would be great to see official support, the Heroic Games Launcher is a very good way to play GOG (as well as Epic and Amazon Prime) games on Linux.

openSUSE also remains one of the only distributions that have automatic Btrfs snapshots setup out of the box. I am very surprised other distributions have not done the same. Especially Fedora, since they use Btrfs already.

LibreOffice and OnlyOffice are both compatible with MS Office formats. LibreOffice is more popular, but OnlyOffice has better compatibility with MS Office files and the interface is very similar as well.

A GitHub issue was opened for Syncthing-Fork, so it will be worth watching that to know whether it will continue to be supported.

If checking their email a couple of times per year is too high a requirement, I would not recommend the time and effort necessary to maintain a mail server. Even people who enjoy self-hosting often do not want to host a mail server.

The same is true for stock Android devices. Unless you are using a custom ROM without Google Play Services, there is more proprietary software than open source running on Android devices.

I have been using Nebula for years and it has replaced most of my use of YouTube. Whether it is worth it for you or not depends on what you watch. You can see what content is on Nebula without subscribing to get an idea of what is there.

The biggest problem I have with Nebula is that it is advertised as a “creator owned” company, but that is not actually the case. Here is a blogpost that goes into more detail about that. That being said, from what I am aware of, Nebula still pays creators more than YouTube per view. I just wish they were more transparent about their business.
