i think a senior thats coming from windows would probably be better off trying zorinOS. even something as minor as the taskbar being in the "wrong" place on ubuntu could be enough to turn a lot of people off

there is going to be a point where people have read so much slop that they will start regurgitating the same style without even realising it. or we could already be at that point

its funny how multi-account containers is a such a killer feature of firefox (that none of the other browsers are able to implement, as far as i remember) but its kept as an extension and they never seem too bothered about promoting it eith

sushtrain seems like the best option for syncthing at the moment. its a bit more polished than mobius. neither of them sync in the background but i think i remember seeing someone using shortcuts to open the sushitrain app every now and aga

syncthing is a very useful utility for this. just install it on 2 devices, add a folder, then the files will sync over the network whenever both devices are on. if you have an old phone or laptop lying around gathering dust you can set up s

minidisc has a lot going for it. you can easily carry a few around with you. you dont really need to carry the outer cases. you can put some album art directly onto them. if your player has netMD support then you can just use a web browser

and also "dearrow" for good measure. it replaces the titles and thumbnails with something less sensational. not having to look at those stupid faces that youtubers make is a big plus as well the freetube app has both of those exte

maybe because phones have a battery (built in UPS) so they will keep running if the power goes out. its only useful if you have a router that can be powered by an external battery pack i supoose

hopefully "bypass charging" becomes more of a thing in the future. a few of the latest pixel phones use it but the only other time ive seen it is on tablets aimed at gaming

i was using newsblur for a long while up until recently. supposedly they have a self hosted version but i never tried it. the UI is an acquired taste i think, it has a very retro feel to it. i was mainly using it because it let you make nes

resilio sync (formerly bittorrent sync) has a nicer UI and its probably easier to use. ive been using syncthing for 5+ years now though and can't think of the last time i had any issues with it. its probably just a bit more confusing i

its hard to beat the convenience of being able to right click/radio to get new recommendations but there has to be other options that arent that much more effort either? i think you can add plugins to jellyfin. maybe there is a last.fm

can confirm. its even nicer with something like syncthing to sync the folder between multiple devices. you get the benefit of being able to add new tracks on one device and having them sync to the other, but still having both devices work o
