The thing is that the marketing for it--and everything about everything Kojima does in particular--hails it as the most complex, deep, meaningful game ever. But you're playing Philip J fucking Fry. Kojima is almost as bad as David Cage and everyone seems to be okay with it.

I’m not sure that capitalism per se is the problem here and more so that the entire way modern, especially tech companies, are funded is just stupid.
That's literally (venture) capitalism. That is literally the most fundamental tenet of capitalism. That's where the "capital" in "capitalism" comes from.
Oh, yeah, it was this huge, frankly surreal, thing. The founder of Private Internet Access decided he wanted his own IRC network and bullied his way into being in charge, along with a team of cronies and yes-men.
What benefit does Paperless provide over searching your email? If you're searching your email, then you can search by message metadata associated with the document (e.g. when it was sent, who sent it, keywords in the email). How does Paperless improve upon this experience? It seems inelegant to just duplicate all that in Paperless.
Granted, that said, I like my email searching tools and email client, so maybe that's part of it?
I can't really comment on the preconfigured packages; I learned way back in the 90s before things like that existed. Definitely recommend learning the editor before going crazy with customization, though, and the tutor is also where I started. There is an enormity of config options, as you'd expect for software that has almost 50 years of history, so just start with what you want / fixing what annoys you.
It really is not hard, especially if you actually do it right (all of those bulletpoints of yours).
I set up my own email on a bsd.amterdam VPS and have had no problems whatsoever. No one drops my mail. I don't know what slash_nick is talking about regarding maintenance. The only maintenance I have is rotating Let's Encrypt SSL certificates, and that's only because I haven't automated it yet. Domi has good points that can be summarized as "actually do it right". I got my setup working in about 100 lines of config. Granted, that's OpenBSD rather than Linux, which is significantly more terse, but it's still not hard and I wish more people would realize that.
conduit is a lightweight Matrix homeserver. If you tried running synapse and found it to be an utter mess, conduit is much better!
mpd is a music server daemon with many clients. It scans your music (either stored locally or on a network) and creates a database (either stored locally or accessed from another mpd server on the network).
minidlna is a ~~DLNA~~ReadyMedia server which is a plug and play media server. Many hardware devices (e.g. AVRs) which don't support anything else do support DLNA, so you can e.g. serve music or video directly to your AVR instead of needing a set top box like an Apple TV or Roku.
If you have a problem with collecting machines like I do, set up DNS with dnsmasq. It's pretty easy to get started, all you need to do is write your /etc/hosts file (and, likely, disable the DHCP server). Additionally, if you have a problem with collecting machines like I do, invest in some kind of config management so it's easy to handle all the different things you're running.
Also, if you want to actually learn, I would strongly recommend against using Docker containers for everything. Besides being stuck with what the developers prefer, all the work of installing things is already done. Build things from source (optional), configure all the pieces yourself, work out all the dependencies and actually learn how things work. That's the fun, at least in my opinion. That's why I have yet another SBC with no OS to fiddle with this weekend: I'm looking to migrate from OpenWRT to real Linux so I can do everything myself instead of relying on OpenWRT's scripts.
This is exactly what happened when the folks behind the hostile takeover of freenode started banning people for talking about libera.chat. And we see precisely how well that went for freenode. This is what happens when business people make decisions.
Looks like spez is done with the AMA. His responses constitute 0.07% of comments in the thread.
No stranger than Doom and Animal Crossing.
