Could you specify wether these support physical keyboards? (showing only a toolbar when one is detected). I’m using the default proprietary Kika-keyboard on my device and it’s not great. Microsoft Swiftkey works but is not perfect and not FLOSS.

Also the “auto normalize” option (true by default and only shown in advanced settings) can mess-up with your source files. Mouting source files read-only won’t work either as it is creating files in source folders.
These IPFS issues are basically UI-related. You wouldn’t expect a torrent to start within 2 seconds. You wouldn’t expect your torrent to be shared autonomously either. Technically, sharing IPFS hashes along with release names (similar to the crc32 on pre databases) would be very efficient, if only it was popular with a proper UI and indexing tooling. These hashes could even be signed by scene groups in the nfo.
It is not anonymous and suffers network fragmentation. Yet the force of Bittorrent is its large community and mature performant tooling (compared to IPFS).
I’d say yes. The user base / visibility of i2p torrent is pretty limited though. You can have a look at the Postman i2p tracker.
Sounds overkill just for backing up files.
Agree on Wireguard. It is faster, more stable and most likely more secured than SSH. And it will work with any application (no per-application configuration required). Without a third party tunneling service, you will need to expose a port in any case (you can setup port-knocking if you want to).
DHT is autonomous and does not require a tracker. Usually it is only used as a fallback as a regular tracker is quicker. It’s p2p, and is split accross people hosting it.
I am doing 5-10$ rounds of donations (4-10 projects each generally) to my favourite projects too on a regular basis. I favor XMR transactions as is it largely accepted those days and fees are appropriate for such low amounts.
I use Gthumb for simple edits (croping, resizing, rotating…).
I use BTRFS for the same. Being able to check for and repair silent corruptions is a must (and this is without needing to read the whole drives, only the actual files). I’ve had a lot of them over the years, including (but not only) because of a cheap USB controller also.
I primarily buy used drives. Depending on your area, you might find buyers easily for your old 4TB+ ones.
