Brave works well on iOS for this use case.

I’m curious how it worked on NixOS. Do you happen to have any Nix config files you can share?

This actually looks like something really interesting, but it doesn’t say whether it’s based on anything, only “rolling release”. Is this immutable Arch?

Ah, ok—was it also immutable like the new one is?

I thought this had already happened?

I remember seeing ads on Steam for SteamOS years ago—wasn’t there a point at which you could download and run it on your own computer? What happened?

Wow! First time seeing this. Anyone using it with a Framework 13? Is there any risk of damaging your system with it?

Just curious—what accessibility extensions do you use on desktop?

If you’re on Wayland, fuzzel just keeps getting better each release.

NixOS. Declarative system management is just so unbelievably simple and reliable that I couldn’t ever see myself going back to a traditional Linux system.

Not to my knowledge, but music.youtube.com is a pretty clean interface, and it’s easy enough to grab links from. Keep in mind, you can feed yt-dlp both playlist (including album) and channel (artist) links, as well as individual videos.

As far as where you get the music from, you’ll have to determine for yourself what audio quality you require.

To test this, use something like Soulseek to get a high quality version of a song you are very familiar with, and then get the same song off of YouTube with yt-dlp (better yet—do this for a few songs). Then, open both songs in separate media player windows, randomize the layout of said windows so you don’t remember which is which, plug in your favorite headphones and see if you can guess which is which.

For me, I found the difference between a lossless or 320kbps download from Soulseek and a 128-196kbps download from YouTube to be negligible (or outright nonexistent) in most cases, so I mostly download off of YouTube, which is very simple to do.

Depending on where you get the files, you may need to add metadata yourself. For this, I recommend MusicBrainz Picard.
