There's a really cool and feature-filled app on Windows called VidCoder that uses Handbrake as its engine. It allows you to create picker presets, offers better queuing options, compare different results etc. It's worth checking o

This is what I want from Linux. Sensible & guessable names for newcomers to figure out where to put files and programs. It's frustrating having to spend time to decide whether I should install a program in /var or /opt or

The only thing that's keeping me on Firefox is the lack of persistent pinned tabs In Chromium. Vivaldi supports it, but it's too slow.
