I bought an android box specifically because of the obvious enshittification coming from Roku. Default Android TV sucks. Not as bad as Samsungs but still sucks. Projectivity launcher and others good. Roku, Apple TV, Samsung, LG - all leave you at the mercy of these companies wanting to leech all they can from you
It’s funny to frame it as bravery. Maybe that’s clickbait strategy. Regardless desktop Linux is great. Only a handful of kernel level anticheat games are a problem. No you don’t need adobe suite for your YouTube, Instagram, Tiktok influencer aspirations. Even open source applications that don’t stack up to Adobe or Avid or whatever exceed what’s needed to succeed in social media. More than enough for what amounts to solo projects
Sweet. Once handbrake and other programs like kdenlive support export in it, I’ll start encoding new stuff in it, at least for testing it out. It’ll be slow but that’s fine. A couple years for hardware decoders in desktop/laptop graphics cards. More for mobile. A couple more for hardware encoders. Then there’s the AI hardware shortage that’ll make adoption even slower. VVC is already practically dead. It’ll be slow for adoption but AV2 is going to be running almost unopposed with how little has happened with VVC in 6 years
