    Someone should put down some traffic cones to direct people to a decent media player.

      I know my Llamas ass gets whipped still to this day, and I always have my traffic cones out. it even works with that failure of a google car whatever too which is . ok I guess

      I’d still rather just use a cable and not have my phone force Bluetooth and whatnot

      For mp3s, I’m still kicking the llamas ass with my beloved winamp… VLC for everything else though.

      I tried using VLC but i couldn’t get to work properly or better say i couldn’t set it up to work like GOM player that i used for years before it became ad riddled garbage, but i did find MPC-HC and it was functionally the same just without the ads.

      To expand what VLC was missing, it was the setting to play the whole folder and to remember where it stopped when i closed it, it might be me that was too stupid to find the setting but with MPC-HC i found the settings immediately and set it up to work as i wanted.

    That’s the one thing windows is good at. Using system resources senselessly

      If the old one still works perfectly fine, why do we need a more “modern” one. Why are we not given the choice? Maybe I don’t want the extra “features” (probably some ai crap)

        Windows is borked though, for the most part, and they charge you for the convenience. Meanwhile many Linux distros have popped up in the past ten years that give the user exactly nothing they don’t want. Life’s easier shrug – sorry if i implied that a newer version of Windows was the answer aha
