This is such a silly idea. One thing that many tech companies seem to forget nowadays: software needs to be predictable. If I subscribe to a channel, I expect the system to notify me about new uploads. If it doesn’t, people will assume that it doesn’t work. This is the reason why I’ve cancelled my YouTube Premium subscription: Youtube thinking it knows better than me.

I couldn’t be bothered to regulary take down my doorbell to charge it. I’d probably tell people to just text me, when they’re at the door.

Gedit was my main text editor for years. I also used it for work. It has all the basic features that you need for coding. For everything else I use the terminal.

I use k3b for ripping and kid3 for editing metadata

I also use Rhythmbox, the UI is clean and simple. Other music players either are too complicated (UI has too much clutter, play queues) or want to automatically import all audio files in my home directory into the library, which is annoying. But to be fair, I haven’t tried a lot of other players, because I’m happy using Rhythmbox.
