  • You mean tf is up with bears? There was recently some kind of a social media survey asking women whether they’d prefer to stumble upon a bear or a man while walking in the forest. Bears won.

    Kinda weird since I don’t remember them specifying the place, the type of said bear, the existence of cubs in the bush nearby or the season, so the possibility of getting attacked varies from “oh, a cute panda; guess I’ll just pass by” to being eaten alive by a bear that woke up from hibernation in the middle of the winter, but I digress

    I mean, they said they don’t like flatpak explicitly, and appimage is kinda the same thing but bulkier, standalone nix is similar as well except the lack of sandboxing stuff, and spinning another distro in a container seems overkill-ish. Idk, honestly, mb they prefer the windows way of downloading random installers from the web or that clusterslackery of placing stuff in /opt by hand




    • Newpipe doesn’t let you leave comments (which was the reason I personally switched to it – I used to spend too much time commenting like half of the stuff I watched, and I watched a lot) or login with a Google account;
    • newpipe doesn’t have sponsorblock (which is currently solved by using tubular; note that it may or may not become abandoned like previous attempts by other ppl);
    • newpipe lets you download video/audio (although, admittedly, having yt-dlp in termux is still more than handy for bulk downloads);
    • newpipe has better (imo) background playback: you can either play or enqueue both videos and playlists (note: I haven’t used yt app for a while, so mb it also can do similar stuff)
    • newpipe doesn’t need play services whatsoever;
    • newpipe’s ui takes some time to get used to (imo)
