There are free services that allow you to create countless emails, one per site is ideal, just like one (different) password per site. Addy and Simplelogin have a generous free tier, last I checked the first one allows for unlimited receive-only addresses (when shopping it's very rare you need to respond), the second gives you some two-way addresses.

If you get a domain, many registrars include free mail service, and have mail forwarding, or "redirecting", which basically will allow you to create countless addresses (that can also send/respond) for your one account (You add these "email forwards", or "Identities", to your app of choice, like K9-Mail for android). You don't necessarily need to buy their separate email package (although the interface might be more convenient). I'll give you one example which includes email: OVHcloud, one of the largest clouds in europe.

If you can afford it there are all-in-one services like Soverin with easier interface.

It might be wise to start a slow process of migrating (or maybe deleting and creating again) accounts, and saving all this stuff in a password manager (like KeepassXC) if you aren't already.

I've been surprised by the ease of use and stability of MX Linux, they also maintain a repo with some key packages updated, like Firefox. It's Debian Stable with a few tricks up its sleeve.

Debian stable + flatpaks is a great combo. Sometimes I still wish some packages were more recent (not fun when yt-dlp starts breaking), sometimes I've been let down by their oldness in Debian Testing, and even Unstable (wanted to test Plasma 6 for instance). Overall I'm happier that there's way more stuff in the official debian repos I would have to use AUR for otherwise.

Yep. Loads of unorganized (and some organized) files uploaded over decades via FTP 😅 a mess full of gems

Apparently the issues are mostly with the outgoing download links from libgen.rs and .st (passing through libgen.lol), including the IPFS links which were being problematic in the past few months already.

Instead I just tried something from libgen.gs which is the one for comicbooks, and it's downloading fine from the direct link.

Thankfully most if not all content should be backed up on Annas-archive!

There are many encodes floating around and even a full bluray copy (criterion collection) on ygg.re... but I'm curious, how come it's at the top of your list?

I would disable Network Access at least, if you've never done it go to App Info (holding the app's icon) -> Mobile Data Usage -> Allow Network Access (at least it's there now in A14 / LOS 21, could be slightly different in other versions)

Oh I was totally not up to date lol, thank you. Love me some fantasy illustrations, I might check it out

Hold on which book? I thought it was a new story. I read the first 4 books of ASOIAF a long time ago but never got to A Dance with Dragons, is it in there?

Btw Plasma 6 is glorious. First time Wayland "just works" without me noticing too.

Recently wanted to try KDE 6 on my second laptop and after being pissed off at the lack of encryption with Void installer (gotta do it manually, have done it in the past but I'm lazy), another fail with NixOs (known bug with encryption in the latest stable installer) the easiest way was installing Arch lol.

I used archinstall as suggested, just answer questions, no manual voodoo incantation required. You can do it.
