I’m resigned to probably giving up youtube (at least for a while, as the ad cat and mouse continues) in the not too distant future. Little of value will be lost… and going back to seeing ads is not worth the price.

So far fine in FreeTube, touch wood.
Cheers.
I’ve had MeGusta at top weight for quite a while (years I think), should probably try ELiTE, wonder what the bitrate diff is…
Interesting, do you have an automated workflow for this?
You’re welcome to your opinion ;)
Fair cop on the inconveniences, although I’ve found it fine after an adaption phase, coming from fedora it was lesser than hopping to a new distro. Hard agree on knowing the nuances being problematic, clarity and accessible education is sorely missing, certainly the steepest part of the learning curve.
I just run ‘distrobox upgrade -all’ in my Daily.service, didn’t need quadlets (although after adaption I quite like them for containers now).
Why would I use a system that isn’t supposed to change if I want to change it?
There’s a bunch of benefits, atomic updates, intrinsic rollback, security of immutability, safe automatic updating and it goes on. Some things are not quite ready yet, e.g. things like sddm which should probably install themes to /etc (which they’re working on), so as often happens in linux, workarounds ensue. Making one directory mutable does not destroy all the benefits.
Yeah, I had that at the beginning, then added to my fstab
#enable sddm and therefore good themes
/var/sddm /usr/share/sddm none rbind 0 0
and KDE themes with sddm components install fine now (most themes install fine into /home, does Gnome really not have per user themes?)
Essentially you can tactically make things mutable as needed, use sparingly, but maybe not even trying lessens your opinion, no?
Yeah, I had that at the beginning, then added to my fstab
# enable sddm and therefore good themes
/var/sddm /usr/share/sddm none rbind 0 0
and then it works, kludgy, but sddm is apparently working on allowing themes in /etc, sometime soon.
Inconvenient package management
Fair.
If there’s a flatpak, no problem.
Once you realize you do package management in distroboxes rather than the main OS (rpm-ostree etc), no problem, plus you have the AUR at your disposal.
So Ima go not fair, although there is something of an education gap atm.
Isaac Asimov used to say that the real sound of scientific progress wasn’t “Eureka!”, but rather, “Hmm. That’s funny.”
Be aware that halfway decent backup solutions dedupe. Which is not to say you shouldn’t clean your shit up. I vote https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka.
Nope, As long as you’re not as uncreative as to use Correct Horse Battery Staple.
The *arr suite, e.g. rando hard drive TV show, add show to sonarr, import (yes it’s usually that easy), movies - radarr, seeking out stuff you’re watching now - prowlarr. Quite mature and way easier than hunting through streaming services.
Either works, but system RAM is at least an order of magnitude slower, more play by mail than chat…
My bad, I didn’t read ‘built a macOS 13 installer’, but now they must return for ‘built a macOS 14 installer’.
OS hasn’t been updated for how many years?
Ahh, not so sure how great a gift an insecure computer is, but I imagine you have your reasons…
Good point, but if I’m going to the bother of transcoding remuxes to AV1, I’ll probably knock up a script, at least for the first while.
