I came across this by accident before I saw the DistroWatch article but dismissed it at the time because of the download size but after reading...
I'm with reasonablePrivacy. Opera is now owned by Golden Brick Capital which is a Chinese private equity firm. Trust level = zero.
I looked at Rclone a while back but it was so complicated to setup I didn't bother. The only other tool I'm aware of is a paid app called Insync...
Best option is to consider one of the truly independents. A few things to bear in mind although these shouldn’t all be viewed as negatives. An odd...

Apart from the obvious step up for someone like me who prefers KDE, I’ve found Debian 12 to be totally underwhelming. It’s jittery in use on my...
There are various fixes for this listed in the Mint forum. Best to search there and decide which of the options given best suits your needs. ..
I’m sort of confused as to their development strategy. I was really impressed with the first release but the notice for 202302231702 stated they...
