Not a ton of stuff, but I’m currently looking at some more, thanks to this thread.
At home:
- Open Media Vault on an RPi 4, with some containers, namely:
- qBittorrent
- PhotoPrism (not especially functional, more a proof-of-concept)
- mariadb
- PiHole on an RPi 3
- Volumio on RPi3s + DAC (x2)
On a Singapore-based VPS:
- Nextcloud
Been a full-time Linux user since 1999 — fed up with Windows … I guess it would have been 98? I found Red Hat Linux on CD at, I think, Office Depot. It was a dive into the deep end. I was having x-server problems at first, and a math professor buddy told me where to find the config file and how to fire up vi. I think I probably spent two days sorting out how to use vi. But I never looked back. Found ways early on of making sure I was compatible with colleagues and others and, of course, have needed to spin up Windows VMs over the years for things as silly as getting Adobe DRM content to display. But it’s all so easy, now, though I do see a lot of good advice here about being certain about compatibility, etc., if you’re on bleeding-edge hardware (given what you posted, I seriously doubt you’ll have any issues).
I’ve used Fedora as a daily driver for at least the last seven or eight years, Ubuntu before that. I’ve run Arch on a few things and always run Ubuntu on servers (just got used to it). Windows will very quickly become something you don’t miss at all.
Having said all that, I’ve never been a gamer of any kind, and I know that makes a big difference.
