Switched to mpv a decade ago. Love the minimal UI and how snappy it is. Used VLC or MPC-HC on Windows. Moved to linux and used SMplayer or VLC until mpv came around.

Give ‘The Straight Story’ a watch if you aren’t into the surreal stuff. I put it off for a long time because it sounded like it would be a boring g-rated disney movie. It’s a great movie, one of his best.

First 2 seasons didn’t do much for me. Liked the movie and season 3. Dune didn’t do much for me either. Love just about everything else Lynch did.

Close to what I normally use. I prefer CoMaps instead of Organic, Mullvad VPN instead of Proton & Artix instead of Arch.

Libre kernel isn’t in my distro’s repo so I have to compile it every new version.

Off the top of my head that I haven’t seen posted yet: Khrangbuin, Ludovico Einaudi, Solar Fields. Buckethead has a couple of beautiful chill albums - Colma and Electric Sea.

dinit is better and major distros should be looking at switching before ibm gets their hooks in even more.

xz exploited systemd’s bloated attack surface… Users of a sane init weren’t affected.

I’m using Mullvad with dinit on Artix. It’s fine. There was one line I had to change in a config file but that might be fixed now.

I haven’t had any issues with dinit. It’s similiar to systemdicks but without the bloat.
