I want to like MPV but it's too minimal for me and I can't figure out how to change the volume in the app, it runs and seeks faster than vlc but for now I've settled on dragonplayer

>>62160247
Linux DEs are shit. If you want something that actually is user friendly, get a mac or Windows
>>
>>62160337
Literally who does shit like this happen to? You'd have to be really retarded not to be able to manage running a stable Arch install. I'm starting to think it's either guys who don't use linux/never used arch or envious ubuntu users making these threads and comments.

t. guy who has had the same stable arch install running for 5 years

Youre beyond help. Try windows media player 11.

Pacman breaks shit all the time. Ca-certificates broke a few months ago requiring manual intervention. Wish i ditched arch years ago

>>62160381
I'm using linux, I like MPV it's just too minimal for me, too many options are hidden.

Nigga I run arch with openrc on my laptop and I've never had pacman break something. I don't get this meme, arch just werks

Fucking hell, you really have been living under a rock. SUSE hasn't been a subsidiary of Novell for almost 10 years.

Manjaro on thinkpad x240 :

>install
>everything works out of box
>trackpoint works nice
>trackpad works nice
>battery life is longer than windows
>With AUR install everything without compiling myself
IT JUST FUCKING WORKS

Shitbuntu and Shitbuntu variations :

>Trackpoint not working and trackpad
>shitty battery life
>spend hours and hours to configure
>nothing happens
>wreck my fucking system

Fedora on thinkpad x240:

>nothing fucking works
>want to kill myself with shitty battery life

Solus on thinkpad x240
>trackpoint and trackpad are working
>want to kill myself with shitty battery life


Manjaro is best Distro and I understund why is popular in distrowatch.

Ubuntu doesn't "just work" at all. Its shitty out of date software means that you're inevitably going to end up having to install a ton of PPAs. That means searching online to find them, just like with shitty Windows. Then once you have all these PPAs installed, Ubuntu starts becoming a horribly unstable mess.

Arch is a lot better. It just works, it's rock solid stable, very customisable and you learn a lot.

>>62164803
When shit "works out of the box" it means theres extra shit baked into the kernel (read:bloat). Why arch+arch-lite fags are so vocal and shitty i'll never know.
