I'm sorry but it's not great for beginners. It's a rolling bleeding edge distro that does not break often but when it does you need to know how stuff works to fix it.

It's still better than no sandbox at all, isn't it? And who installs their OS on an HDD in 2024?

6 years ago Proton was a thing. It worked out of the box with Steam games like it does today. Yes not everything was gold rated on protondb but it worked fine. I've been gaming on Linux since 2018.

postgresql db (e.g. in Docker) + Dbeaver as GUI client

ZFS encryption works fine but AFAIK it's complicated to do full disk encryption (for the OS drive) - this is easy to do with with luks. ZFS is not complicated and just works - at least that was my experience. There is also a lot of help available online.

Yes, exactly. I push photos into the "import folder" of Photoprism. I don't manually trigger the re-index but I restart photoprism at night using a cronjob. I am not using settings like "PHOTOPRISM_AUTO_IMPORT". Contact me if you need me to investigate more.

I'm uploading to a directory using syncthing. It's working perfectly fine without any scripts. I'm running Photoprism in a docker container.

Signal is probably the best option because it's as easy to setup as Telegram and others.

You can do that with ZFS. It's built-in integrierty check will automatically heal errors and tell you what drive has gone bad.

I can also recommend zfs on debian. Even if you only using two disks you will be still protected from bit rot.

I can recommend dockprom. It comes with grafana preconfigured.

ZFS is rigid? Please explain
