An efficient solution would to just stop using Google's services all together. That way they can't spy on you so easily and make a profile from your internet habits.

There are plenty of alternatives to Google services in the opensource realm.

Just give me a black screen and a white blinking cursor, I know how to do the rest from there.

That's exactly what happens on opensuse when I log into to Wayland. Kwin also crashes 100 % of the time. I'm using a 1050ti.

So my default is always x11.

Can you shed a little light how to fix the Wayland issue.

Thank you.

Edit. I misread your post. Its not the command line but the GUI. Also its a black screen with a mouse cursor followed by a kwin crash.

Can't even login on my desktop on Wayland. Kwin crashes immediately.

I have a 1050ti BTW X11 runs like a champ.

It's free If you copy one command into powershell.

From there you can even create a shortcut on the desktop.

OpenSuse Tumbleweed is an excellent choice, if you want the most stable rolling release distro.

High quality OS.

I have been running a Synology NAS, 416 play with a Celeron n3060 (I think) dual core with 8GB ram.

It runs all my docker services (around 20) with no issues. Containers are more RAM bound than CPU. Uses about 40-45 ℅ of the RAM.

The only limit is when transcoding as suppose to Direct playing a movie. Then it really taxes the CPU. But I don't really watch movies so its a non issue.

So a NAS doesn't need a beefy CPU if used as a file server. Can be tricky if you run Plex on it though depending on your codecs.

Its available as a flatpak for all Distros.

I hear Linux is on the rise. ;)

That's what I do on my external drive. Used to use Windows so bitlocker it was with NTFS.

Now on Linux I just use it normally as its recognized without any problem.

I'm sure as hell not gonna erase my data to inplant veracrypt just for the sake of it.

For future drives, veracrypt it is.

I'm still in the Early days of Linux and I had trouble twice with other distros before.

I think third time is the charm. Still I have been bitten before so I'm holding on to Windows for a while just to play it safe.

I am daily driving Linux though, I hardly use windows. But I need a working computer so I can always fall back to Windows if all else fails.
