My favourite quote of the day

Like everything in this fucking IT world, it's pain in the ass.

True.

I remember fighting with the browser source. Nowadays you can just install a full build of OBS from some (third party) repositories. At least that's what I've done. Good reminder not to use Snap. As far as I know it's just causing problems for lots of people.

Btw I don't find the language that offensive. Sure it's not meant for kids. But I think fairly acceptable for a rant.

I think he installed the snap because it had that?

But yeah, the flatpak is official (even though there are missing plugins)

Btw

Yeah, I've been using Debian, Arch and NixOS in the past. And at least those 3 didn't need any Snaps or Flatpaks. It's in deb-multimedia.org or the AUR and Nix has it per default (like it should be anyways, if you ask me.)
