From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I would too, but after like a week I get bored of maintaining it myself when all the expenses summed together aren't much cheaper than Proton or likewise. This is what I was doing before submitting my independence to Proton.
Furthermore Nextcloud is just too damn sluggish. The web interface makes it seem like my server's idea of a CPU is a kid with a calculator and WebDAV isn't designed for cloud storage. I'll take new features being slow over my whole experience being even slower any day of the week.
I feel that. However, Proton's a non-starter for me as I'm using Linux, so no Proton drive client. Really scratching my head since Linux attracts the security conscious.
