Pirating a small company/org feels weird to me.
Like yeah, sure, LTT makes (at the bare minimum, the actual # is more this is just extrapolated from their lowest sub cost) like 1.5mil/yr from Floatplane (gross, ofc, not net). That's a pretty modest amount for their team to include profits/salaries/hosting/etc.
Linus Sebastian, the individual, is a millionaire. That isn't money that is being used to make my quality of life/other services worse, though. I don't care enough about the exclusives to actually watch them, but if I did I'd fork out $3-5 every few months to catch up on the ones I wanted to see.
Big tech? Raise ye flags. Normal people making a living off of big tech? Feels weird to me. Not saying not to hurt their bottom line, just that doing it through a platform that (at their scale) isn't making a ludicrous amount of profit and isn't actively damaging your access to your services, feels weird to me.
Just pirate YouTube. It will give you the same content for free, and you'll be stealing features Google thinks you should be paying for, like background playback, video quality, a down vote count, the ability to download videos for later, etc.
It doesn't bother my eyes, but then again my monitor isn't very bright so the contrast doesn't bother me.
It more or less is just better Sway with wah better documentation.
Finally feels like home.
Idk if I would necessarily recommend this for other beginners like myself, but Fedora was last on my list of stuff to try and after working through some initial gripes with dnf/copr, it really grew on me. Didn't end up enjoying GNOME so went to work on sorting out Hyprland. First time using Wayland, but the performance increase has been really noticeable.
Anyway, the goodies:
term: Alacritty browser: Waterfox file manager: Nautilus launcher: rofi resource monitor: htop music: spotify-tui with cava visualizer text editor: nano because change is scary
The music player is spotify-tui, available at: https:/aur.archlinux.org/spotify-tui.git
It's basically just a terminal interface for Spotify/Spotifyd. Really useful keyboard shortcuts and usability imo. Recommend it for anyone wanting a terminal player on Arch or its derivatives.
Simple daily driver Arch setup
wm: qTile
terminal: alacritty
text editor: sublime
Not a lot going on here, just the setup I've been running for a while. I'm planning on trying out Fedora in the next few days, but I always come back to Arch (or have in the past with Ubuntu based distros).
