I’ve been using linux for about 20 years and have never used a tiling WM. What are the benefits? What am I missing out on? My current daily driver is Mint with Cinnamon.

If you’re only running nextcloud on it, any computer 15 years old or newer, with at least 4GB ram will be able to handle it.

If you want to have a reliable installation, avoid a raspberry pi and get a computer that can take at least two storage drives so that you can set up RAID. Or better yet, mount the storage from a dedicated NAS.

Why is this a problem?
