Yup, although that doesn't stop some weirdos out there claiming that CDs sound better than FLAC.
Don't forget digital music stores like Qobuz and www.bandcamp.com.
Artists get more money when you buy their music outright instead of stream it.
This is correct, although it's not the bass that is limited on vinyl; it's the dynamic range compression (or 'loudness') in general.
This. People assume that because it's "compressed" it must sound flatter, less dynamic, or just vaguely worse than uncompressed audio, despite the fact that audio compression specifically uses psychoacoustic models to remove the bits of data that our human ears and brains cannot hear to begin with.
Expectation bias is a helluva drug.
Yea, with the lack of mod tools here you don't have that many options really.
You guys have my sympathy. I'm a pretty strong critic of Apple and their products but I'd never go out of my way to interfere with communities of Apple users. That's just kinda pathetic.
Unfortunately, I don't see that there's much you can do about this apart from strictly moderate the comments section and just try to ignore the up/downvote discrepancies.
Can't say I've seen much evidence of questionable moderating in this community so far.
Worldnews@lemmy.ml, on the other hand tho? Wew lad
Am I living in a backwards world where Linux uses the invasive complicated way and Windows uses the private simple way?
I mean, you chose xfce and that's a DE which makes you do everything the hard way anyway.
Both KDE and Gnome have the functionality you're looking for straight out of the box.
Ah, that's because GTK4 and libadwaita severely restricted custom theming. They may be ways around this but I have no idea because I use just adw-gtk3 as my theme so all my apps look uniform on Gnome.
So I guess you'll either search for a way to hack this or just stick to GTK3 apps if you don't want the stock GTK4 look.
Well, no.
In Spinoza's view, God is not a separate entity but the fundamental substance of the universe. It's God all the way down.
Seriously? Fucking hell, that's depressing.
