A little bit o' tech, and a lot a bit o' politics
@gryzoniufka EOS is a good one. It's my current recommendation for more computer literate friends wanting to try out Linux. Happy its been good for you!
@gryzoniufka The rabbit hole that is gentoo awaits! Totally agree with arch tho. Cachyos has a minimal install that dumps you into tts, but with a lot of the custom stuff I would have done already. So I went that route with my current install and it's been great!
@ScatteredShadows obviously depends on your use case, but I would stay away from rolling release distros for a server application. Debian is very solid in this regard! Let us know how it goes!
@scriptkiddie the monkey paw curls a finger.
@royal rclone is basically the same thing using SFTP (SSH) directly instead of sshfs.
I've heard accounts of sshfs being slower than rclone.
Good luck!

Morten MosgaardOne of the things that suprise me the most about my #linux computer: I’m having so much fun!
I haven’t had this much fun with an OS for years, and I love how the opportunities and in some extend limitations make me think creative about how I use my laptop.
My MacBook really isn’t, and never has been, fun. It’s nice, quiet, powerful and all, but not fun in the same way my Linux laptop is.
This has been the same for nearly all the distros I tried.
I’m starting to sound fan-boy-ish…

royalI'm having so much fun with Grist. Open source spreadsheet-like database-based app builder. Use their hosted version, host your own, or get the local desktop app.

IMO stick with any of the 'major' distros and you should be good! Most distros are just a different wallpaper, different default apps and settings, and like one small change to the usual experience. If you stick with Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch (if you are a bit brave), or maybe even OpenSuse you will have an easier experience following guides and the like. Check out 'DistroWatch' and look at the 'based on' tag for any distro!
