What are some FOSS programs that you think are a far better user experience than their counterparts?
(sh.itjust.works)
I used Plex for my home media for almost a year, then it stopped playing nice for reasons I gave up on diagnosing. While looking at alternatives, I found Jellyfin which is much more responsive, IMO, and the UI is much nicer as well.
It gets relegated to playing Fraggle Rock and Bluey on repeat for my kiddo these days, but I am absolutely in love with the software.
What are some other FOSS gems that are a better experience UX/UI-wise than their proprietary counterparts?
EDIT: Autocorrect turned something into "smaller" instead of what I meant it to be when I wrote this post, and I can't remember what I meant for it to say so it got axed instead.
I don't think I've had to reconfigure mine for different window sizes... of course, I don't typically record individual windows I record a screen.
If I may ask, what do you use OBS for that you have to record individual windows that are sized differently each time?
Just general recording snippets of things to send to people. A non-maximized window is a different size from a maximimized window, which is also a different size from a full screen window.
Right, right. I think it's a little unfair to say OBS isn't simple in that regard, though, as recording small snippets of screens isn't really what it's targeted towards. It's more of a content streaming/recording software, IMO. I honestly don't know what I would use if I needed to regularly record differently sized small portions of my screen to send to people.
