And how do you do that using GUI? The exact same way, looking blindly and playing random videos (or name the file properly in the first place).

Thumbnails? Or maybe searching through find, which is not as straight forward as something like search in dolphin.

Also "name the file properly in the first place" is such an off putting mentality. I want my computer to simplify work by doing things for me, not need to properly catalog every random video because of the failures of my UI.

At the risk of being a 'works for me' guy, I tried downloading and playing a couple random videos and it worked on version 2023.07.06. So hopefully yt-dlp is alive and kicking!

That does sound rad. Mostly my point was just about not having push-to-talk or toggle mute in the jitsi plug in, but I am far from deep on what can be done with the matrix protocol.

To explain more specifically. Matrix is federated, so you can talk to other matrix servers like Lemmy instances can. However, matrix not part of the Fediverse, which is built on activity pub, which lets Lemmy, Masotodon, Pixfed and others all talk to each other.

There is a jitsi widget for rooms though, so you can convert any group chat into a drop in/drop out voice room similar to discord's voice rooms. The biggest struggle I have with it is that it defaults to asking about video every time, and there is no hotkey support. 🤮

I'd imagine so

Okay? That doesn't change the fact that it's the lifestyle of people in rich countries, not the number of people that is the problem.

Between this and treads having activity pub integration, it is infinitely upsetting to me that the only company that seems to be interested in open tech is fucking meta...

Malthus was wrong about this too. It's not the population that's a problem, it's miles of strip malls, filled with cheap trash, and meat and dairy every meal of the day.

I strive for the confidence of the park ranger, in this, shorts, a nice breathable polo shirt, doubled white socks and sunscreen still visible. All while being the chillest guy you know. It is not in the hat itself, but there is power in your ability to wear it.

It could be their goal is not to be folks primary casual browsing instance, so just being someone that is stopping in to hang out isn't quite what they are looking for.

Yeah I don't fully understand either. I think the point that folks were making was about port forwarding allowing for much better speeds? I don't have Mullvad, but I know with my vpn my speeds are crippled when torrenting on it, so maybe others have similar issues with Mullvad without port forwarding.
