>i wish it had the GUI of mpc though, as it's more inconvenient and has god-awful default hotkeys.
both are because of familiarity and legacy
mpc in that that's what you're used to
mpv in that the common hotkeys were kept as is from mplayer, which predates mpc
for me, i used to use mpc in windows, and mplayer on various other systems, and since moving to linux, just mplayer (then mplayer2, now mpv), so i'm very used to those keybinds, as are, i imagine, the mpv devs and many of it's other users
changing them now would be like messing around with how mpc looks and feels, we both like the respective players because the provide a familiar and consistent user experience, just to different people

Is this true that the official AMD driver for ganoo lanix performs worse than the open driver?

opengl performance is better with the free driver, vulkan is similar

use the open source driver for older GPU, if you have a RX480 or better, check the AMDGPU driver. I think they have a AMDGPU PRO which contain some proprietary stuff related to vulkan.

this is misleading, amdgpu is foss as well, only amdgpu-pro is non-free

Okay brainlet here, I find this silly but how come I cannot mount and write to a usb? If you sudo mount the usb with --wr bash tells you that you still cannot perform the operation (cat > hi.txt) in the mounted usb directory.

No I am not going to fuck with fstab just for a usb.

sudo mount -t vfat --wr /dev/sdb1 ~/Desktop/usb/ is the command im running.

How do I make it werk guys.

Just had my credit card cloned so i'll be changing for Linux for security reasons. Using Windows just for gaming.
So i would like to ask you guys what is the better version for someone going out of Windows. I'm seeing a lot about Mint, what do you guys think? Is it the most popular version of Linux?
