How about Lollypop? It’s one of my favorite players, although is not updated very often. There’s also Quod Libet and Pragha, both of which are very capable. Or if you like something more aesthetically pleasing, Gapless is a good choice. Many people also like Clementine and its more updated fork, Strawberry, but personally I don’t like their UI and UX.

I still have one of those! 😆

Didn’t use it too much, tho. Never installed it on bare metal, only in a VM, and back in those days I was in my distro-hopping phase (I was discovering Arch), so I tested it and quickly forgot about it.

Actually, I would really like to find a similarly non-bland proportional character to use beside it.

Well, there’s Fira Sans, but I don’t know if it’s what you want. I like to use it for things like slides and titles, and I’ve used it as a GUI typography for some time.

I use Fira Code Retina. I like that it is not too light, not too bold. I’m also partial to Cascadia Code and DejaVu Mono.

For the GUI, I use Adwaita Sans in both my GNOME and XFCE computers.

It probably means this hardware database.

MusicBee for music management. Especially since I ditched Spotify and came back to local music. See, there are two things that I want from a music manager software: good playlists management and the ability to transfer such playlists to a phone or portable music player. Sadly, none of the Linux apps come close to MusicBee (and I think that I’ve tried almost all of them).

Some, like Strawberry, have decent playlist capabilities, but fail when I try to send my music to my phone: either it doesn’t detect it (I’m talking about using the USB cable and MTP) or throws an error when transferring the files. And there are certain bugs that haven’t been solved. Others, like Pragha or Gapless, cannot transfer music. Lollypop is the most acceptable one, but its playlist UX is awful, and is slow AF when syncing with my phone. So, for me, MusicBee is the only software that I truly miss from Windows.

And no, I don’t want to just copy the music using the file explorer. As I’ve said, I rely heavily on playlists, and this method doesn’t work fine for that. For the same reason I don’t use Syncthing.

Some weeks ago I tried to install Arch on an old laptop, and since it have been many years since I’ve installed Arch for the last time, and I’ve heard good things about archinstall, I decided to try it. Nothing fancy: single drive, LXQt, no encryption, auto partitioning…

I tried maybe 4 or 5 times, configuring different settings in the script, and every single time it gave me a broken installation: no GRUB, or no display manager, or incorrect video driver (Intel, no Nvidia here). I supposedly configured all the options correctly, but I never got a working system. In the end I snapped and searched for some video tutorial and installed Arch the old way. I have no desire to use that script again, at least for a long time.

Tab Stash seems to be what you’re looking for.

That is true, hackers, that is trueeeeeee…

Well, we have a Pink Ubuntu (Hannah Montana Linux), a Red/Black Ubuntu (Satanic Edition), a Salmon Pink Ubuntu (Uwuntu), a White/Gray Ubuntu (Elementary OS), a Blue Ubuntu (Zorin OS), a Yellow/Black Ubuntu (Linux Lite) and an Teal Ubuntu (POP! OS). And I think that KDE Neon could be Purple Ubuntu, but I’m not sure.

Thanks! I wrote that when on mobile, so I didn’t think to add instructions 😅. Also, if the user needs to allow some cookies, they can be set at Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies & Site Data > Manage Exceptions.

Is to prevent that that you configure UBO in medium mode. Since many cookie banners are loaded by a 3rd party script, they’re blocked by UBO when configured this way. For the rest I use one of the “Annoyances” filter that come preinstalled. Since the time I adopted this method (~3 years) I think I can count the number of cookie banners I’ve seen with the fingers of one hand.

Configure uBlock Origin in medium mode and set Firefox to delete cookies on quitting. Easy.
