If you want something cheap check out RackNerd yearly deals. Last I checked they still have listings for black Friday and other old deals once you've made an account. I got a server for like $12 a year with 5tb monthly bandwidth. I have 3 servers total with them and haven't had a problem for the 3 years I've been using them.

There should be more deals when you click add services.

Understand on the latency possibly being an issue. I did see they have servers in France now. Maybe you could do some ping tests.

OneDrive automatically backups folders in Windows 11 without users' permissions ( windowsreport.com )

According to the latest reports, Windows 11 has made an independent choice by automatically turning on OneDrive folder backup for Desktop, Pictures, Documents, Music, and Video folders without your permission. This signifies that, whether you approve or not, everything is becoming coordinated with the cloud....

It actually way easier on Linux.
Arch just type: pacman -S programName
Or yay -S programName

Most distros have a software "store" and it's just as simple as installing an app on your phone.

It's less steps than an exe and automated.
Opening the terminal is one click. It's not like you need to know how to do anything else in there.

It is extremely easy. Open terminal, one command. Done.
Your quote ended with "and...." As if there was a lot to type.

"Oh that's easy. Just open the terminal and type pacman -S firefox" sounds better.

Okay. Everyone is different.
If they can point, click and type they can open a terminal and type something simple.

I have to say your car analogy is more difficult.

It's just a matter of explaining a different process than what they are familiar with to install something. It's not hard at all after you show/explain. Just different and in my opinion easier than an exe.

If you can open an app you can open the terminal. It's not a daunting task.

I know you didn't ask for alternatives, but since you have a Pixel I thought I'd at least mention it.

Have you tried GrapheneOS?

My battery life is amazing with it and I've never had any overheating issues.

Edit: my local credit union app works fine. You can even relock the bootloader after you install graphene.
