You can add mpv to FreeTube as an external player. With yt-dlp, it supports playing YouTube videos directly and in any quality. It also has a plugin for SponsorBlock integration.

Nah, too much work for a text/picture/video that does not need JS to be displayed anyway. If admins are not interested in implementing proper fallbacks, I'm not interested in visiting their site, sorry.

That page does not work without JS.

Well, jokes aside, people who install Arch usually want maximum flexibility out of their system (I have no idea why you would torture yourself like that otherwise). And after some time spent with Manjaro, I can confidently say that it greatly sacrifices your ability to tinker with the system in the name of user friendliness. A great distro to start with, but if you still like it after a couple of months, you probably didn't need Arch in the first place.

Nah, Manjaro is Arch for toddlers.

And if you press the button for too long, the game will assume you want to sprint, instead of dodging. Also, command queue sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, haven't figured that out.

I'm using Freetube, too. While it fails to play 2160p reliably, you can always use a button to send the video to an external player like MPV. And MPV works without any issues.

Using a specialized tool for the task is the way to go, in my opinion. I use OpenStreetMaps when I need to look at the map. If I'm looking for some famous(ish) place, I look it up on Wikipedia and jump to OSM from there.

A switch to per minute, per megabyte plan made me a lot more concious about spending money on my phone. If I want something to watch/listen to during a trip, I download it beforehand. I almost never use any minutes, only communicating via the mobile data. With autodownloading of pictures disabled in all my chat apps, it runs about 50 MB per month, which charges me less than 50 cents.

Yea, I know. Fucked up my wording a bit while trying to explain why I'm using the app.

Offline capabilities is the killer feature for me. I don't have much bandwidth on my mobile data plan, being able to access maps without internet connection is incredibly good.
