Edit: Apache OR Nginx? Could someone fix my title - I posted without proofing.
My wife is having half decent success with ecommerce. She's doing great on Etsy and eBay, and now her website is starting to pick up.
It's currently hosted on 20i who pride themselves on being an excellent WordPress and Woocommerce provider, with a half decent CDN. In reality, I think it's pretty shit for what you pay for.
I'm tempted to either grab a VPS or even go as far as a bare metal at a CoLo with public IP and run the full stack myself. If I do, shall I go Apache or Nginx? I've done both and I'm pretty agnostic. OS would be Debian.
Before I go to this length though, does anyone know of a fair priced but good performing Woocommerce platform? She's got hundreds of hours already, the plugins and over 300 products listed, so I'm loathe to move to a different solution, however, I'm not ruling it out.
The reason to not all in on Etsy or eBay is the 25% cut they take of everything. Using a personal site and Stripe payment platform means it's more 1% + 20p for processing.
Ideas, thoughts and suggestions please?

I have been having a lot of trouble finding a digital clock. I don't even know where to ask for recs, I tried a couple subreddits but there is no /r/digitalclocks so I'm trying a more general place here and maybe someone can help?
My requirements (I'm in the USA so that's where the time finding needs to happen):
- It autosets the time based on the radio signal
- It automatically detects DST
- Backup battery so if I get a power failure it doesn't lose the time
- The time is the only thing on the display. (Although, this seems to be the hardest one to find, so, if it also shows the temperature or something, that's ok, as long as the time is a lot bigger than anything else)
- Not willing to spend more than $50 on a clock
- Needs to be LED not LCD, i.e. I want to be able to see the time in a dark room without pressing a light-up button or anything
Additional bonuses:
- If it has a rainbow display
- If it has a USB charging port
- Big numbers, like at least 1.5" tall
I don't care about the alarm or any overhead projection features.
If you have a digital clock that you love that meets these requirements (or at least mostly does) I would like to hear about it!! Thanks!!

I use keepassxc as my password manager and it sits in the system tray quietly until it is requisited by a login form in firefox.
Gnome does not have a system tray, so you just open keepassxc on startup and it just stays there floating in the background?
It's been months since I last used Gnome. Did anything change or it's still like this?

I was asked to recommend a phone to an older relative that is bad with technology and wanted to ask some advice.
It is important that the phone is reliable and clean. That is no bloatware, popups, adware, nagware or anything like that. Other than that the requirements are simply as good a camera as is available at the budget and maps.
The options I can see are:
-
standard Android phone - Personally I have Samsung A34 which would fit the hw and price but the sw is horrible. I also have no current experience with custom ROMs as I went with adb(and Universal Android Debloater for ease of use) to remove the worst of it. From what I have heard the Google Pixel comes with least amount of bloat as Android(single source) but they seemed to have different problems with hw each generation and the price would mean an older one. Maybe something else would be better choice here.
-
iPhone - honestly I have zero experience here as I never had it so I don't even know how much it would fit. The price would also mean an older or used model
-
Dumb or KaiOS phone would fail the camera requirement and the minimal phones mentioned here(eg. Light phone, Minimal phone) are expensive for what they are and I am not convinced a good choice here given the usual problems with niche hw and sw(but maybe I am wrong?)
I am in EU and the budget is less than 500EUR, preferably less than 350EUR.
