fail

It is ridiculous! I’m sure it’ll do little good but I sent some feedback at https://www.youtube.com/tv/feedback

But I don’t want to reward people that do this by watching their videos

I use them on both. I use more of them (6) on my desktop, and I use them more often, but only because I’m usually doing several tasks on my desktop while my laptop is for more casual use and I only require two or three. I mostly use Gnome and bind Win Key+Num for each workspace.

I’d think it should be opt in, but they’re not even willing to entertain the idea of having neither selected and have the user choose on the basis they’d typically select to opt out. Perhaps that means you’re in the wrong.

It does seem a bit slower than it used to, but it also seems more stable than it used to and I don’t think that’s a coincidence. These days I also see the occasional package pulled when it introduces issues which is not something I recall happening in earlier years. I think it’s great, personally.

They just have the .net though.

Isn’t this something else though? Meta’s is .net isn’t it? So even they couldn’t get the .com…

edit: Indeed it’s nothing to do with Meta, though it seems kinda related. Bit surprised Meta went with the name actually.

Open source, excellent. Well done devs. Would be a bit rude to make a closed source app for this open source platform, wouldn’t it.

Well that would apply to any distro I’ve used… they’re all going to have things that aren’t in the main repos. It’s a feature for Arch in that on nearly every other distro it’s probably going to be more of a pain to install them.

Don’t know. The AUR is a big reason I use Arch. Obviously there’s PPAs/OBS or whatever but they’re not implemented nearly as well, I don’t need to go searching for new repos with the AUR or messing with repo priorities (fun times on Suse…) since everything is in the one place and there’s procedures for taking over orphaned packages. I use about twenty or so packages from it, many of them not packaged for any other distro. Personally not interested in using Flatpak since two package management systems is not my idea of KISS. Poor man’s AUR imo :).

Jerboa is working well for me so far.

Haven’t ever needed them on Arch. Probably never will.
