On Raspberry Pi, a larger SD card helps spread out those writes. Alternatively, get a high endurance SD card which is made to handle more writes. Log2ram helps further by journaling logs in RAM then dumps them to your SD card once a day (or at configured interval)
Personally, I just boot my Pi from an SSD in a USB3 enclosure, with log2ram running - best of both worlds.
Thanks wolf@lemmy.zip !
Thanks to your post and plenty of config tutorials, I’ve got this set up on my Oracle Free Tier VPS running Ubuntu. It has recently been struggling hard with 1GB ram, requiring reboot. The difference with zram enabled… WOW.
I haven’t been able to get zram working on my Ubuntu VPS with another provider though - search results suggest that some providers don’t allow swap.

Adblock Plus… I don’t know!
In adblock plus, acceptable ads are on by default, but optional:

In Firefox, install the uBlock Origin extension. Go into ublock settings, disable ad blocking filterlists, enable tracking filterlists. Personally, I’m blocking ads too as they’re sometimes abused as malware vectors.
Or if you only want ads that aren’t interfering, there’s Adblock Plus with its acceptable ads programme. Can’t vouch for whether that’s a good or bad thing.

It’s like the nano text editor, but point and click.
Get a local SIM or eSIM when you arrive. If you’re dealing with insurance, you might want to be able to receive calls too. Regarding privacy: good luck.
Because the family premium tier gets you and designated family ad free YouTube when using Chromecast, and YouTube Music. Worth it for me. We’re all cheapskates here, just some of us are less cheap!
I want to like OSM, but like you say, its weakness is search. I have to get the search just right, and make sure I enter the postcode as XXN NXX. And maybe then it might give me the right result.
However, in GM, I can mash the postcode together as XXNXX and it understands. Or if a mall has changed its name and I didn’t know, GM gives me what I want, not what I said.
