Or they could keep using Brave? I use Brave on my phone and Firefox on my desktop for the same reasons mentioned, but in general Brave is a great browser on phones. I’m amazed it isn’t hugely popular if only for the YouTube features.

Do they pay every time someone checks out a book?

Good question! Not OP, but I’ve used the free version extensively and have no need for Plus. The free version works great and is the podcast app I recommend. That subscription price is just dumb though.

For the described scenario only one public IP is necessary. The other Nextcloud instance could have an internal IP only.

Kevin Mitnick was truly legendary. I particularly respect the fact that he reportedly never stole a dime from anyone, and that he ultimately used his skills for good. His services helped protect many people including government entities from hacking attacks. The world lost a great man too soon.

I can’t speak to Racknerd, but I have used a couple VPS from Ethernet Servers and they are a great value. I have a single core VPS with 3 GB RAM and 100 GB SSD for $25 per year, and another with higher specs I pay more for.

I stuck with Windows for the longest time because of gaming, but for my needs that’s no longer necessary. If it’s been a while since you tried Steam on Linux you might want to give it another try.

I don’t usually downvote on Lemmy, but this is a real test of willpower.

Check out Professor Messer on YouTube. Super professional and comprehensive exam prep videos are available on his channel for free. I relied on his videos, a flash card app, and Mike Myers CompTIA A+ study guide when I was broke and trying to get A+ certified and into the IT field. It worked out for me. I owe Professor Messer a debt of gratitude.

All great questions! It will be a Debian Linux hosted VPS. Thanks for the input!
