Literally never once had a problem playing any video in browser, from a variety of sites (social media, streaming services, news sites, file sharing sites, ZERO problems. All videos have played every time.)
Again, just install them if you want them. Nothing is stopping or preventing you from having them, you’re just choosing to complain about something that isn’t even a problem. Users should expect that all the software they want to use comes preinstalled with the OS, including software with EULAs and proprietary licenses that they must agree to, and they’ll never ever need to install a software package? 🙄
You’re just factually incorrect as both twitch and twitter videos play perfectly out of the box.
What an arduous mountain you’ve created from the molehill of installing a package using a package manager. My eyes can’t roll harder
EDIT: I just checked and adding the nonfree repo and installing the package can even be done entirely from the Discover GUI. It’s literally just a checkbox 🤡 God forbid the user check a box in a GUI, it’ll send them straight back to Windows 😂
Hello! Random person coming in. I’m a New Linux convert. Have used Mint and its great, works well. Much to learn but I feel like I got this. Tried out Fedora recently, and while I’m getting things to work. if feels like I made a mistake, like it doesn’t feel as good to solve my problems on Fedora as it does something like Mint. I’m still learning, yes, but from a new Linux convert, Fedora does not feel as good to use and learn.
Another random chiming in, been a Linux user for 10 years, and a couple years ago, I gave Fedora a good go for a month and couldn’t get it either.
I’m sure if I committed more time to it I would have understood it, but I needed a working computer and not one I was fighting with half the time, so I cut it there.
My experience has been the opposite. Besides Debian which I use for headless machines instead of graphical ones, Fedora is my go-to JustWorks™️ distro for graphical computers that I need to be reliable and know I’ll never need to worry about or fuss with. For my computer that I don’t need reliability and don’t mind messing around on, I use Gentoo.
I think all this highlights is the how great it is to have many distros to choose from that fit different user’s needs and different use cases. Obviously we are using the systems in different ways from each other.
Not really sure what you mean by this, since the only major difference is the package manager or choice of desktop environment. Do you just prefer apt over dnf/yum? That’s fine, you do you
See, the biggest problem is that I don’t know what I don’t know. And maybe Mint helps me more in identifying those areas. But I’m trying to put words on a conceptual feeling.
lol why are you lying about something so easy to disprove.
If scrolling in Discover is too hard for you (which somehow it appears to be), you can literally setup the repos in one step by just clicking the links on the RPM Fusion website https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
Again, tell me how installing a package using a package manager is a problem? Like… yeah… you do need to install the software you want to use…
Ah yes, proprietary software, just the “basics” of course. Just install them from the nonfree repo if you want them.

That’s fair

it’s not an easy switch then
We’re asking for an easy alternative
There isn’t an OS or distro that doesn’t require you to install the software that you, one specific person in particular, want, sorry.
They will assume the basics should be there by default. It’s sad but to have an actually usable computer you need some proprietary software bs
