I like endeavour os. Needed an uptodate kernel and fancied a change after spending 15 years on mint which i love. Kde was new to me but grown to love it.
Arch ftw.
Ah yes forgot to mention in my family we run syncthing fork from fdroid also.
Memos is pretty usefull for me. App on fdroid momemos is superb. Syncthig takes care of google drive ish needs. Immich for photos.
Mealie keeps food interesting.
Have not done calendar or contacts yet.
Running a few on a low power pi5 using docker for the most backup pihole runs on baremetal.
1 16tb external and 2 5tb external. Not the best but i dig it.
I need a nuc.
Been running mint for years with eveything ok. Built a new system with amd and had to start looking elsewhere for an os. Endeavour to the rescue. I have a ryzen 9900x and a 9070. Few issues early but superb so far.

On the router.
My router is locked down so i assign the vrrp address to wach client (pain in the ass) but it works.
Pivpn takes care or wireguard too.
2 pihole instances 1 pi5 1 pi4 Keepalived provides vrrp at a set address.
Instances kept in sync via orbital
1 goes down the other takes over.
Quite elegantly.
Lighttpd ran into a dns issue mid update. And it dif not complet and left the aformentioned webserver running.
Removed with apt and voilla.
