> I also personally keep no data on my devices

Now I get your point. But still I would prefer to access my "personal" accounts from a device I trust.

Do you use a cloud service for your files?

Yep. I've been a paying Google Workspace user for almost 20 years now (in the various iterations of the product name).

Some stuff goes in GitHub, none of which I actually truly care about though.

I'm sure you'll groan. :)

But hey, if it's good enough for Cloudflare and Datadog (two past employers), it's good enough for me.

I also may be weird because I don't own any media and I'm perfectly happy with the streaming model. I enjoy not having the mental load of thinking about self-hosting and backing up terabytes of stuff.

I feel "lightweight" and I like it.

Yeah it makes it very easy to be OS-independant. I have backups of my whole home directory so if anything goes awry I can just reinstall software as I go and restore my config files from the most recent backup.

I have a Nextcloud instance for family to store files, though.
