As others have said, nvidia will work but you're better off with amd for the GPU. CPU brand doesn't really matter.

If you're duel booting, I definitely recommend two separate drives, one for each OS. Use the bios boot selector to boot between the two. It makes things much much easier if they're not sharing a drive

Have you looked at tumbleweed? Its a rolling release so its always up to date but opensuse's testing is fantastic. It's very stable and on the off chance there's a regression that impacts usability, it has built in version snapshots. It takes literally 45 seconds to roll back to a previous working version.

+1 for tumbleweed. Swapped to it from Ubuntu a few years back and it's been great. Up-to-date everything, very stable, built in recovery just in case the last update had some regressions. Highly recommend

Don't underestimate the relief of a clean ending. The author isn't in a good place, it won't do him any favors to leave it up. He clearly wants to put this chapter of his life behind him.

Something I've been wanting to work on is a TUI wizard for configuring software.

The thought is most Linux server program use various config files, and in order to configure them correctly it generally takes a few minutes to a few hours to read through their documentation. But a lot of the configuration boils down to passwords/keys, file paths, network locations, a few different booleans, etc.

So the general idea is, for a program, the developer or the community can provide a config file telling the TUI wizard what arguments the config file needs, and this one program can walk the end user through setup and generates the config files. This would reduce the amount of time hunting through documentation and reduce bugs due to typos or invalid choices.

It could go a step further and auto generate keys or passwords if needed, validate entries (ie if the config needs an IP it could make sure it's valid, etc)

I'd really like wikijs 3.0 to release. The current version is almost good, but 20 minutes into using it I found it missing a lot of features I was hoping for.

OP is looking to move away from Google. Immediately getting locked into a different, arguably more restrictive, platform isn't a solution.

Now in general:

Pros:

  • ~~free~~ (paid plan only?)
  • company will stay in business for a while

Cons:

  • subject to Apple's privacy policy
  • US based company, not great for privacy
  • locked into a different platform
  • Apple's walled garden ecosystem means long term use is questionable. Will Apple keep supporting 3rd party email clients in 1,3,5 years? Do they even support it now? Who knows?
  • Apple has control over your account. If they screw you over on an iPhone purchase and you do a credit card charge back on them (for any reason really) do they let you keep your account? Google doesn't
