Host your own stuff. With this little load you can do it on your own hardware with very little resources.

Same.

Yeah, not suspicious at all.

I have the equivalent of RAID 5 too, but mind the usual “RAID is not a backup” - if you deliberately delete something (or something goes wrong with an app managing your media), hardware redundancy won’t save you in any way; it only helps if the data is intact and you want to remedy a hardware failure.

I only back up my music collection because I put extra effort into organising and tagging everything, plus some of it is rips of CDs not available anywhere. As for movies and TV shows, I only back up configurations and catalogues of the relevant apps, the contents themselves are 1) too big to be feasible to back up and 2) 99% of the time available to re-download.

He’s probably right, but from what I see, the reality is that like 95% of people simply don’t care, and the rest will find an alternative.

Wow, that’s pretty terrible. I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen data caps on home Internet (edit: there were some a while ago, but those were basically cellular-at-home for places that are hard to reach with copper or optic fibre); must’ve been early 2000s. Right now I get 600 Mbps d/400 Mbps u at home and 10 Mbps d/u cellular (no data cap) for a total of under 30 EUR/mo.

If I remember correctly it zooms in images that you point at (quicker than opening the image in a new tab). I’ve been using Imagus for that.

Not just extensions, sometimes it’s entire software companies. Opera Software got bought a few years back.
