1 year agoVLC, for playing videos and other media.
I’m surprised nobody mentioned this, but I use mpv
for the same. It barely has an interface, but it’s light and extremely configurable, and what I did was turn it into a picture-in-picture player (small, no border, etc, show subtitles if possible…). I use it to watch everything, including Youtube videos (it has builtin yt-dlp integration).
I’d probably post quite a bit of content (music, etc) on a youtube alternative if I could expect it to not be copyright-striked. (and if anyone would watch it. The current PeerTube instances seem very barren.)
