I used to. But in the later years I found it very difficult to carry this much weight. In addition to that, I've realized the transient nature of my music tastes and my over-reliance on music. Also my priorities have changed a lot. Music is far from essential for survival, and when the times get rough (when you move a lot, and all you can take with you is your laptop), it's much easier to access an online library than your own physical one. I've decided to keep the mp3s (m4as, wavs, flacs, etc.) of the songs that aren't on Spotify and remove everything else.
Yeah, every time I tried, I used the latest GE version. Tried regular Wine and Proton too, and the result is always the same, I dunno what's the deal with it.
I'm with you! Blizzard has been nothing but disrespectful to the Diablo franchise, original devs and players. Not to mention, buying an online-only game is basically renting it. I'd rather just replay the masterpiece that is Diablo 2, which they will never match.
I always prefer native packages over containerized. But I'm glad they exist, because every now and then a native package won't work.
I don't agree with most people that say Linux needs to be streamlined: less distros, less packaging systems, etc. Personally, I like when I have options. I prefer flatpak over snaps and appimages, but ideally I'd like to have all of them available just in case.
When comparing snaps to flatpaks, in my personal experience, flatpaks just integrate better. But they're not THAT much better than snaps, so I could see myself using either, it's just that so far I haven't run into a situation where I'd need to use a snap.
There is one downside to flatpaks though, and it's their names. As DT pointed out in his video, it can be pretty annoying to run them through terminal.
But I hate the fact that Mint removed snap and Ubuntu removed flatpaks. I don't think we're achieving anything with this "war of formats". Let people use both and decide for themselves.
You guys actually paying for Spotify?
