Do yourself a favor and disconnect from news feeds, notifications and social media for 2 weeks and see how you feel.

Edit: also take a break from Lemmy. I swear I think the doomsaying here is worse than Reddit.

The ratio of people who are capable of writing less-shitty software to the number of things we want to do with software ensures this problem will not get solved anytime soon.

Non-solicits are probably not legal in California anyway.

(preparing for inevitable downvotes) depending on how much storage you need and the flexibility you have in how you use it, Office365 includes 1TB of OneDrive storage for 6 users for somewhere around $100/yr. I use it for storing encrypted video files from my NVR and it works for my use case, but ymmv.

Sir/Madam, as an expert in this area, I draw issue with your comment: several of these can be performed WHILE shitting. The determination of which specific activities are compatible is an exercise left to the reader.

Are you looking for something with a nice UI or just hardware you can install your OS on and roll everything yourself? What’s your budget?

Ubiquiti makes a pretty user-friendly rack-mounted router: https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/udm-pro

You can also check out pfSense, which is an OS that does routing and more. You can install it on your own hardware or buy a machine through them: https://www.pfsense.org/products/

If you’re just looking for a compact server that you can install your own OS on, then SuperMicro has a sale going on right now: https://store.supermicro.com/us_en/catalogsearch/result/?q=SuperServer 1u&categories=Deals

Just know that whatever you pick to replace the router-portion of your current Netgear device, you’ll also have to invest in a separate WiFi access point to provide your wireless network.
