I know it does but you said “That kills the point of LibreTube bruh.” So if you can use a VPN, and there’s no point to slowing it down…it doesn’t sound like disabling it “kills the point” at all, like you first said.

Basically, your two messages contradict each other.

The sole point of LibreTube is to use piped proxies? Odd, you figure they wouldn’t include an option to make their entire app pointless.

• The video is a return to the creator’s previous “Top 5 Linux Apps” monthly series, which was popular in the past.
• The first app highlighted is Boxy, a graphic design tool for creating SVG images and logos, with a user-friendly interface compared to more complex tools like Inkscape.
• The second app is Eyedropper, a color picker tool that works well in Wayland environments and allows users to get color codes in various formats.
• The third app is Iotas, a simple, GTK-based note-taking app with Nextcloud integration, focused on basic note-taking functionality without advanced features.
• The fourth app is Plexamp, an electron-based desktop music player that provides access to the user’s Plex music library.
• The fifth app is Sigil, a niche tool for editing metadata in eBook (EPUB) files, particularly useful for adding series information to support self-hosted ebook platforms like Calibre.
• The creator acknowledges that Sigil has some quirks, working better in KDE than GNOME environments.
• The creator encourages viewers to provide suggestions for future “Top 5 Linux Apps” videos in the comments.
• The creator provides links to their social media and support platforms, including Mastodon, Odyssey, and Patreon.
• The overall tone is one of enthusiasm for sharing useful Linux applications with the audience, while also acknowledging the niche nature of some of the recommendations.

if used for work…Features? Don’t care.

Most organizations care about maintaining document compatibility, especially formatting, and that usually means Office365. Microsoft is notorious for publishing a standard and then ignoring their own standard, making it exceedingly difficult to use other office suites.

I’ve heard OnlyOffice does the best at maintaining compatibility.

I know that’s the point, which is why I said it. The person I replied to asked if they were missing something, so I was attempting to educate them on said point. Then they edited their post to add the /s after the fact.

Most browsers I run into, you can search from the address bar. You can also disable or point to a different search engine, if you want. So you could skip going to the site. That aside…most browsers would accept google.com and not need the full https://www

I say most anecdotally as I haven’t tested them all.

With most PC things (RAM, disk space, CPU, etc etc), too much is better than too little, provided you have the resources.

using Newpipe’s own fdroid repo

Better yet, use Obtainium to “get Android app updates directly from the source. Obtainium allows you to install and update apps directly from their releases pages, and receive notifications when new releases are made available.”
