VLC is still the best media player... But only on Windows systems. When I switched from Win->Linux I had to relearn a lot of new things that were common knowledge on Windows but work differently on Linux.

Specially Win11... Eewww !

Yeah, mpv is better on Linux. VLC is still my preference for DVDs on the computer though. Super easy.

I got into Linux by building HTPCs and then media servers, so it's been a while since I watched anything hunched over a computer monitor tbh

Fair enough. Personally I put all my media on my Jellyfin server, so kind of a similar situation here.
