I went through a similar situation with openmailbox dot org, though of course in their case the entire service suddenly shut down. Terrible position to be in. I eventually recovered most, but not all, accounts using that email address. Huge PITA.

Not that I care about MMOs anymore (been clean for seven years at this point) but isn't LOTRO still operating?

Ah:

If you're desperate to roam Middle-earth in company, Standing Stone and Daybreak's The Lord of the Rings Online is still trucking along with a small but steady audience, almost two decades since launch. The community's recent doings include finally accomplishing a pilgrimage of desperately underlevelled hobbits to Mount Doom.

I didn't realize that was a thing! Neat. Do you know what all that includes? On Aurora DX I only had to layer virt-top (virtio-win can be installed as a local package). My use case: I run a Windows VM that uses the discrete graphics card.

Edit: I did an rpm-ostree reset this week and found virtio-win was baked into the deployment. Long story but this started as a Bazzite machine, then I mistakenly rebased to the Silverblue source image that they used to make all the ublue OSes (which is a thing you can do, but obviously not supported or desired) before I eventually rebased again to Aurora DX. Learning is fun. At no point did the system fail to work, though. Kinda badass.

This is a hit piece. Aurora is my daily driver for work and I think it's great. It guarantees you always have a working system (assuming you use deployment pinning) and that alone is worth it to me for the stability and anxiety-free updates. If you switched to Bazzite for your gaming PCs last year like I did, Aurora is a natural fit for your productivity needs.

I quell the rising panic by getting baked and watching game shows from the 1970s, so I'd say I can run as long as the power, internet connectivity, THC, and money to pay for them hold out.
