“The new Video Player prioritizes a distraction-free viewing experience”
How can you say this while having the controls overlaid onto the video, youtube-style, and cropping the video corners ? admittedly corners are rarely of the utmost importance in any film, or other video file. But just don’t touch my corners.
Anyway, I don’t use Gnome
Just use mpv lol
I use PotPlayer
I always go back to Fedora. Different strokes for different folks and I’m definitely not trying to have a “Which distro?!?” conversation. Maybe you have philosophical reasons to hate it. (I do sometimes too.) But that’s my home base.
It’s partly because I learned on WhiteHat/CentOS/RHEL for work. But even today, it’s my stable, baseline distro. They don’t change Gnome or push updates without at least some testing. (I know.) Drivers almost always work. There’s (usually) documentation written by paid professionals. It’s just a good, solid OS that I can make mine without uninstalling shit or worrying it’s unstable.
Debian is perfect for that too, obviously and I’m eternally grateful for Arch’s wiki and community. But for my needs, Fedora strikes a near-perfect balance.
I like Fedora and Debian a lot, but update fatigue drove me crazy with Fedora in particular. I know I don’t HAVE to update everyday, but if they’re available I can’t help myself. I like how calm and still Debian feels in comparison. I’m running mostly Debian 13 now days and I’m going to try holding out the full 2 years before the next version. It’ll be a bit of a marathon as I read about all these new features every 6 months.
Integrated brightness control for multiple monitors is awesome!
GNOME didn’t have this before?
KDE has had this for almost 2 years I think. Heck it even works with my desktop monitors over DP and HDMI.
Never ceases to amaze me how any word on new GNOME improvements brings out all the Plasma users
what else is there to compare to, windows?
