The idea that downloading gigabytes of packages every week is a normal and required aspect of using a computer is part of why I left Windows…
Who runs their email servers? You can outsource fediverse server hosting too…

Some day most people are going to understand that “I want to post something visible to everyone in the world EXCEPT these specific people” is not a viable or reasonable or even possible approach to communication, and any attempts to make it work are doomed to failure.

Also more expensive ones with better temperature control for wine bottles.
You should be able to share a significant fraction of your home directory.
