Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
nixos users installing a web browser:
Man, I thought having more CPU cores was what made compile jobs faster, I've never tried compiling on more screens before. TIL.
For real, I was like... so what the hell?
Maybe it's making fun of windows users who go through a 3-100 step install wizard?
It's not making fun of Macs, which IMO has the slickest installs of just dragging.
I'd rather click a button that installed everything to the right place than relying on myself to drag a single thing to a specific folder. Opening a folder first and having to drag is... a drag. That's my opinion.
Installing on a Mac looks like this.
Imo it's very intuitive, clean and clever. No wrong way to do it.
Once you know, it is easy. But this random popup with 0 explanation, besides an arrow, is not intuitive at all. In general I like my MacBook Air but I hate MacOS and if it wasn’t apple silicon itd be running linux. Once Asahi or something similar deals with growing pains, it will 100% be doing so.
UI design of apple truly amazes me. Did Jobs really worked on the design as well
