I would also recommend it, and I even tried it when i started, but i just couldn't get it to work. Probably permission issues

For a while I split tunneled tailscale through an openvpn .conf file, but recently switched to using qbittorrent in docker with gluetun. Qbittorrent is realistically the only service that needs to be behind a vpn so it works out well

I'm sure any server oriented Linux distro will do fine. I use Debian.

I will note, I don't know if you're planning on having remote access (e.g. through tailscale or reverse proxy), but if you are, I found it quite a challenge to get proton to play nice with them

Damn that's crazy I didn't realize my third party map app was actually just Google maps

I haven't used threads, I just assumed it already had ads

Username checks out

I think it's fair for someone to want to cheat in achievements of this nature. OP put over 100 hours into this game and is only 0.1% of the way there. If I put 100 hours into a game, I would also want to fast track past these two middle fingers the devs threw in

While I still enjoy the older titles more, I've been having a lot of fun with this one. Terminus is definitely a top 10 map, maybe even top 5

Yeah I thought it would be a long shot but I figured i should mention it just in case, good luck finding a distro

My problem is that I want to choose when to listen to the same song a million times. When spotify gets in the loop of playing the same songs over and over, it becomes very difficult to force it to break out of it when i get tired of it. If I tell spotify to shuffle my playlist, I want spotify to shuffle my goddamn playlist

I know you said you want to use KDE, but Pop is actually working on their own DE, called Cosmic, to be released with the 24.04 version. It's currently still in alpha, so it's far from finished, but if you're trialing other distros anyway I don't think it would hurt to boot it up and explore it (at least for a few minutes)

All these companies do is make it easier to use wireguard, if you're so afraid of them just use wireguard yourself, you'll get the same effect
