> The system is not supposed to 'lock up' when you run out of physical RAM. If it does, something is wrong. It might become slower as pages are flushed to disk but it shouldn't be terrible unless you are really constrained and thrashing. If the Kernel still can't allocate memory, you should expect the OOMKiller to start removing processes. It should not just 'lock up'. Something is wrong.
I don't why but locking up is my usual experience for Desktop Linux for many years and distros, and I remember seeing at least one article explaining why. The only real solution is calling the OOMKiller early either with a daemon or SysRq.
> It should not take minutes. Should happen really quickly once thresholds are reached and allocations are attempted. What is probably happening is that the system has not run out of memory just yet but it is very close and is busy thrashing the swap. If this is happening frequently you may need to adjust your settings (vm.overcommit, vm.admin_reserve_kbytes, etc). Or even deploy something like EarlyOOM (https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom). Or you might just need more RAM, honestly.
Yeah. Exactly. But as the thread says, why aren't those things set up automatically?
- OOM still a disaster zone

Fedora spins
It's not that simple: some defaults may differ, and some features may arrive at different times (if ever). For example, earlyoom has been enabled on Workstation since F32, but the KDE Plasma spin got it one release later.

So what exactly do I do if Linux crashes?
Most answers will answer your question, but you can do better and avoid the freezes in the first place. IME almost every time the system froze up and didn't come back in a few seconds it was out of memory. The obvious solution is to add memory, but you can use Early OOM to kill hungry processes if you're running out of memory instead.
- Why is there no reliable way to receive signal when OOM killer decides to kill you
-
What do you do when Linux becomes unresponsive (in a frozen state,mouse clicks or keyboard doesn't work)
It sounds like you're running out of memory though, so if your OS's OOM killer isn't working as well as it should, you can try earlyoom as an alternative.

Linux Desktop Environments System Usage (Gnome, KDE, XFCE, LXQT, Cinnamon, Mate)
Swap is indeed supposed to prevent this AFAIK. You can though try some tools like EarlyOOM and see if it helps : https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom

Can you trust Microsoft Todo, if not what else should I use?
My best choice is Tasks.org but its only available for mobile OSs. My other choice is just using Standard Notes with extensions, but its todo extension is really not that good, my main complaint is the lack of sub tasking ability and the fact I cant assign a task a date.

Sending emails to myself
I think there are more specific and sophisticated tools for doing that. Check out Standard Notes.

What's a notes app that's cross platform I can use completely being self-hosted?
Best IMHO is https://standardnotes.org Can be self-hosted

Hi u/zcyph, I'm glad that you were able to figure out the answer to your first question! For providing more exposure to this question and others, feel free to create a thread on our syncing-server repo. 🙂 Please don't worry about it being considered as spam. I'm sure other users will find your threads helpful!

What tools do you use for software development?
I like to take notes and document step by step while working on a project. I used https://standardnotes.org/ for that

Would you use ProtonMail to keep journal entries?
I heartily recommend, and use every day, Standard Notes. Totally free, strong encryption. Get involved.
