With en croissant you have the option to directly download web databases like:
Lumbra's Gigabase
Caissabase 2024
Ajedrez Data - Correspondence
Ajedrez Data - OTB
MillionBase
Or install your own pgn database and convert it.

Other GUI's probably have other options. You really have to start comparing GUI's if it's databases your are running after.
But even that is not fool proof. A database only tells you what was played. Does it really give probabilities of a move? The novelty is not included, but with maia engines I would assume the probability of a novelty move would be included.

You mean mega database?
Mega database can act as your reference database, also it contains annotated games (not all of them are annotated). You can buy but Telegram has it free (piracy warning)

and regarding quitting one time control , i suggest you the latest YT video from GM Noel Studer .

Good reasoning on his part. The size of your "time bucket" is certainly a huge factor. Rapid is really a good time control for learning and experimenting with. Completely agree.

For analysis, I find Chesscom Premium to be better.
