This is a somewhat hacky solution, but I’ve set up a thing in the past, where I would share a URL to my desktop via KDE Connect. And then on my desktop, I configured the default browser to be a script that I wrote.
This script would check, if the URL is a YouTube URL, and if so then open it via MPV (with yt-dlp also installed on the system).
If not, then just open it in Firefox as normal.

Erklärung für die 2½ nicht-ITler: poweroff ist ein Befehl, um den PC herunterzufahren. Das “Connection terminated by remote host” bekommt man, wenn man den Befehl stattdessen aus Versehen auf einem PC ausführt, auf den man gerade remote verbunden ist (via “SSH”). Das ist oftmals ziemlich problematisch, weil dann u.U. jemand physikalisch zu dem Rechner laufen muss, um den An-Schalter zu drücken.

I have heard before that you can just add it to uBlock Origin, yeah.

That’s really not a good sign, though. A review process to check for basic sanity is just a bandaid fix for a lack of discipline, which ultimately requires more work to be done. So, the person that asked the magic pattern machine should review that code, as they should be deeper into the context of what needs to be done, and they know which parts of the code were generated and which parts they actually logically thought about.

Built upon Mono and Gtk#

Oof, I tell you. Oof.

I doubt many devs will want to subject themselves to a Microsoft stack, so I wouldn’t put too much hope into a fork. Probably rather worth seeing if any of the current music players have a similar UX…

Yeah, I did not expect them to do that title justice, because how in the hell could anyone try 200 music players, but how did they get down to 7 and somehow skip some of the most popular players…? Did all of those somehow look broken on their setup? 🫠

A few years ago, I helped a lady carry a suitcase up some stairs, which was not much smaller than her. I had hooked my finger under the handle as she tried to lift it. When we reached the top of the stairs, I decided to just unhook and keep walking, without saying a word, purely because I did not want it to become awkward. 🥴

Well, HTTP + HTML+JS+CSS. The “World Wide Web”, if you will.

Da hat man ihn doch direkt wieder in der Nase, diesen unverkennbaren Geruch: Neuland

Terraform is proprietary. You want to the use the OpenTofu fork instead: https://opentofu.org/

There’s varying takes on why folks prefer Gemini:

• HTML browsers are too complex. It is virtually impossible to implement a new one. We’ve got 2½ implementations, i.e. Blink/WebKit and Gecko, and that’s it. Yes, you can use Dillo or w3m, links and lynx to view simplistic webpages, but anyone, who actually wants to use the web with these, will quickly run into webpages they cannot view.
  With Gemini, you can use tons of clients, some of them even written in Bash, because it’s so simple, and you will not run into pages you cannot view.
• Burn the web. Some folks hold the opinion that the modern web is beyond saving, because advertisers control many central parts of it. Presumably, these days folks are also glad to be spared from AI-generated garbage. And again, you can create your own webpage that’s all smallweb with pure HTML and whatnot, but anyone who actually wants to browse these pages has an easier time finding them on Gemini.
• An own community. Of course, using a different communication protocol cuts off communication with most of humanity. But as a result, many folks on Gemini know each other and bother reading blogs that they might not have read on the HTTP side of things.
  Well, and through survivorship bias, folks on Gemini tend to be nerds who care about permacomputing and the like, so that also helps with finding folks that have similar interests, even if you might end up reading their gardening blog, due to the aforementioned point.
