I can’t live without adblock and unhook lol, but my phone seems too old and shitty to run the web version of youtube without draining battery.

The amount of times I’ve been watching youtube, it queueing up ads, and me just pressing the home button to switch to newpipe is immeasurable
edit: don’t remember writing that wtf
I have a laptop with HDR and back when I was still using Windows I don’t think I’ve ever used it either. It felt like the hardware equivalent to those programs that add screenspace shaders over games lol. Maybe if I played a game or watched a movie that supports HDR I’d change my mind but right now I am clueless. Maybe with the new GNOME
I’m not impressed by the subtitles themselves (they’re just ok) but rather by how accessible it is. Like it being an option rather than it being a “tool for creators” or limited to premium or something
Or maybe youtube has added so much dogshit features recently (like ai overviews, automatically adding info cards for anyone mentioned, and highlighting seemingly random words in comments to search it outside of context) that it makes me appreciate these things more lol
I use Gnome, but I just wanted to say Cinnamon is fantastic (probably my first choice if I weren’t on a laptop)
Or Cinnamon! IMO it feels less overwhelming than KDE to people coming from Windows.

I haven’t used inkscape too much as it’s always kept crashing on me and feels unorganized, but if you are already used to it I’m sure it’s easier to just stick with it.
boxy is awesome, one of those little programs that has a lot more going on than you first expect (as a very casual desktop user)
Is this doing something similar to Mint’s web apps? Great to have as flatpak regardless 👍
I recommend Runcat, its the only extension I have installed aside from blur my shell (:
I do like gnome for how out of the way it stays. It’s easy for new users to understand its lack of distractions and start to actually just use software on it. It’s got its target audience.
I’m not saying it can’t be done better. Cinnamon, my current personal choice, does most of the same things right.
I haven’t used KDE much because of graphical issues on my device, but it seems like a nightmare getting workspaces or gestures set up. It seems like the polar opposite of ‘distractionless’, where you can spend hours learning and/or getting lost in a maze of submenus. I understand that’s an appeal to some.
I want to love KDE, and I might retry sometime soon, but as a casual it does make me appreciate what gnome is doing.
