I bought the box set for this game which came with a cartridge a couple years ago. Good thing I've got that, now, welp.
Flaky
Spotify became so slow for me that I had to move the other direction.
I've manually handled my library, but I've used Playlisty for whatever playlists I wanted from Spotify.
KDE, just because it's a good balance of usability and customisability.
Used Gentoo mainly in 2019-2020 and I sometimes get the urge to go for Gentoo again but Arch is serving me well right now (and I'd prob need a little help configuring it in a way that won't overheat my 7950X). Though I might just give it a try in a VM for old time's sake.
I've been using Rate Your Music for the past three years now. In mid-2022 they overhauled their recommendation system and it might suit your needs if you put the time into rating things you like and hate.
It uses your release ratings to figure out what genres and descriptors you respond well to, and which ones you don't like, and uses that to not only recommend you releases you haven't rated in the genres/descriptors you like, but also releases that are outside your comfort zone to broaden your tastes a bit. I used it briefly as I've got a massive backlog and want to focus on that, but I found some great stuff through the recommendation system.
I believe free users and regular (£20/yr) supporters get 100 recommendation, Select supporters (£40/yr) get 200. Both supporter tiers also allow fine-tuning of the recommendations, but I've not messed with it. (EDIT: Forgot to mention, you can have generated playlists for Spotify based on your RYM recommendations, and I believe they have intentions to support Apple Music in the future).
I can provide screenshots if you want to take a look.
Ehhh, even for that I've had issues, even before the API stuff. The solutions I came across either came from casual word of mouth on Discord, tutorials on GitHub or forums other than Reddit.
I just don’t use Reddit at all anymore.
That’s the fediverse for you! I’ve had better software discussion outside of it tbh.
Anyhow, library management on Apple Music is also way less annoying than on Spotify, especially when handling tracks you import from your local library.
For near-guaranteed compatibility, there are dedicated manufacturers like System76 and Tuxedo. Framework also claims Linux compatibility but for set tested distros (Ubuntu and Fedora).
Generally, anything with Intel/AMD graphics and Intel Wifi is pretty much guaranteed to work in my experience. For laptops, high-DPI displays can be problematic but the fixes are on Wayland which is getting higher priority now.
Not really, the Switch Taiko games work with either button presses or gyroscope. But Hori does have a taiko drum controller that was bundled with the box set in Asia and Europe. For some reason it's harder to get the drum in America.
