Personally I use mailbox.org, it’s not free, but you are not the product

Vast majority of sites work for me (librewolf), but for the few that don’t I also have Vivaldi installed

Both of these are on f-droid

My favorite e-reader is Cool Reader(granted, it was last updated 3 years ago)

My favorite music player is innerTune (however that is more for playing YouTube vids as music)

Second impression of Garuda (Arch based). My first impression was the dragonized version, which is KDE with lots of mods to make it Mac like, but with extra window animations.

I like things simple, so when I tried Garuda again, I installed the Gnome version. Other than some weirdness getting my Nvidia card working with Wayland, it has run better than anything else on my laptop.

Fully agree with this. There will be a slight learning curve since it will be different from what your used to, but it’s friendly enough to figure out.

If you know the windows program you want to use just search something like “Linux alternative for x” (sometimes there is specific KDE or Gnome progs)

Invidious is awesome, if possible, self hosting one in docker is great and keeps it up to date
