I did notice a difference which made me switch permanently: I have a ton of weeb anime with Opus audio, and it tends to crackle on VLC for no good reason. It's not even a recent, unknown audio format, and I have noticed it frequently enough that it pissed me enough to switch after nearly 20 years of using VLC for everything. Fuck knows why it even happens, but at least the audio's clear in MPV, same as if I opened the video file on an audio player like foobar2000.

Browsers. Firefox is okay, but its recent decisions make me want to switch. I use Linux, which gives me a bit more variety. I tried to use a terminal-based web browser as my main browser, but it won't work for everything.

I am considering switching to Brave, but I am not so sure about that.

Does any anon know some good browsers?

>>107627303
Firefox is more than 50% owned by Google, but it's the only non Chromium browser if you don't count it's forks, will have full support of uBO forever.
Brave pretends to be Firefox on Chromium, shills Crypto, sold it's soul to Palantir, will lose uBO support (like any other Chromium browser) soon™, and their integrated blocker is as "good" as uBO Lite.
Google Chrome is, well, Google Chrome, gonna just put Safari in the Chrome line because there's just no point in these 2.
Microsoft Edge is, well, owned by Microsoft, sadly it is the fastest option on Windows 10 & 11 if you use that, they still support uBO but will eventually stop.
Opera/OperaGX is just a complete meme overall, no need to even mention them being a Chinese honeypot, because the browser itself is worse than being just a honeypot.
Vivaldi is "ok", but they pretend they won't get into AI just to bait their users, their browser is literally based on Chromium, lol, their UI is also childish/mid.

TL;DR: All browsers are fucking dogshit, not a single one respects you including their makers, and all of them have AI in them, including Firefox & Vivaldi, which a lot of people don't know apparently, just use whatever looks prettier to you and runs better on your machine.
>>
>>107627303
I use Vivaldi. The worst part is that it's closed source, but I enjoy the features. Built-in email client that is honestly the most sane email client I've come across, native vertical tabs and gestures. It being Chromium based is good for both privacy (fingerprinting) and for addon compatibility.

What’s up with all the anti Windows 7 posts lately?

I switched from Gentoo to Windows 7 Platinum a few weeks ago, and I haven’t had a single issue so far.

It’s noticeably faster than any DE or WM I’ve tried, which honestly surprised me, especially considering I’m running an RTX 5090.

At first, I was worried about security and getting hacked. But it turns out I can install a fully up to date browser and a modern firewall, so that’s no longer a concern.

It’s also much easier to use overall. The UI is consistent, clear, and easy to read. Because of that, I installed it on my girlfriend’s laptop and my parents’ PC as well and they’re really happy with it.

I genuinely don’t understand why some people are so strongly opposed to it, especially considering the massive influx of AI generated packages Linux distros have seen in recent months.

>The more "user friendly" and "community focused" a project becomes the worse it becomes.
That's only when it is bad and run by a cult that can't handle criticism. The "worse" is just normal people pointing out the flaws and problems that cult members are told to ignore.
>POSIX OSs were already user friendly even in the 80s.
They were friendly to users of backdoors like the Morris worm, not the people using the operating system. UNIX was a lot worse than most operating systems, and also buggier and crashed more often. UNIX systems stole a lot of features from better operating systems, like tab completion and virtual memory.
>The entire point was it being user friendly enough for someone that knew what a compiler was and how to read C.
Then everything is user friendly enough for someone. Toggle switches and lights are user friendly to someone who knows the computer's machine code in binary, but UNIX trannies will complain because they don't want to know how computers actually work. UNIX trannies will say that anything that makes computers easier to use is bad unless it's something UNIX has, then it's something they can't live without. UNIX behavior is the same as cult behavior.
>Even if they couldn't program they were at least smart enough to download a tar and extract the contents then run make/make install.
On DOS, you could run a self-extracting archive and then run an EXE. And you could use batch files to compile programs instead of "make" brain damage.

>>107623908
I'm tempted to try out a BSD, but I fail to see a reason for it. I like Rust, Wayland, and I'm indifferent to SystemD, but I wonder if there is something worthwhile about having a more pure Unix experience. FreeBSD seems more flexible and likely easier to transition to, but OpenBSD is made out to seem more cohesive. I know FreeBSD has jails, which seems interesting, and I'm not trying to maximize security, so I'm curious what are some other features that'd sell someone on using a *BSD over Void Linux or something similar? And why choose FreeBSD vs OpenBSD?

I am attracted to this idea of a pure Unix experience and avoiding all of the modern woes of Linux that I can't help but want to use on my main machine.
>>
>>107630342
FreeBSD is a decent server/router OS. Even then, the problem I've found is that sometimes for every 5 ways of doing things on Linux there is maybe 1 way of doing the equivalent in FreeBSD, but good luck finding it. For me, the main advantage over Linux is native ZFS, but the effort spent getting to really know FreeBSD is not likely to be worth it. The nice thing about Linux is that you can most likely avoid all the woes you're thinking of (unless they're with the kernel itself) and still take advantage of the wider ecosystem, by using some schizo distro. As for using it on a desktop, it's pretty cool that it has native Nvidia drivers and a native port of Morrowind, but once you let the novelty wear off you just uninstall it and get on with your life.

Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.
