Some people have to use their stuff for a variety of reasons, don't be a dick about it.

They are probably just using your IP address to determine the location. That will show the location of your ISP, not your location. That's not much more info than any other server gets when you are connecting to it. Also does not require Mozilla to send any geolocation data.

You can add mpv to FreeTube as an external player. With yt-dlp, it supports playing YouTube videos directly and in any quality. It also has a plugin for SponsorBlock integration.

Nah, too much work for a text/picture/video that does not need JS to be displayed anyway. If admins are not interested in implementing proper fallbacks, I'm not interested in visiting their site, sorry.

That page does not work without JS.

Well, jokes aside, people who install Arch usually want maximum flexibility out of their system (I have no idea why you would torture yourself like that otherwise). And after some time spent with Manjaro, I can confidently say that it greatly sacrifices your ability to tinker with the system in the name of user friendliness. A great distro to start with, but if you still like it after a couple of months, you probably didn't need Arch in the first place.

Nah, Manjaro is Arch for toddlers.

And if you press the button for too long, the game will assume you want to sprint, instead of dodging. Also, command queue sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, haven't figured that out.

I'm using Freetube, too. While it fails to play 2160p reliably, you can always use a button to send the video to an external player like MPV. And MPV works without any issues.

Oh. Maybe you are right. All I saw was "ffprobe missing", just spat out a fix for that without reading thoroughly.

Using a specialized tool for the task is the way to go, in my opinion. I use OpenStreetMaps when I need to look at the map. If I'm looking for some famous(ish) place, I look it up on Wikipedia and jump to OSM from there.
