  • In my experience, Finder can’t even do what it’s named (find anything) and it feels dumbed down like it doesn’t want me to find certain things (part of that may be MacOS’s design though too) ;(

    Windows file explorer was alright, until they botched it in Windows 11 (like how the botched everything in that “update”). Last time I used it at work, they still hadn’t got tabs working without it being a buggy, slow mess.

    Dolphin file explorer (for linux) is hands-down the best. It has every feature and integration I have ever wanted and it does what it says on the tin without being buggy. Truly the power users’ file explorer.

    Not tryna refute your experiences though. These are just mine.





  • My recent improved flow is:

    1. Put my new music in a ‘import’ folder
    2. Run a beets container and tell it to import from the ‘import’ folder to my ‘music’ folder (beets tags all music with prompts before moving to my final music folder ofc).
    3. Jellyfin (which already has a music library set up and pointing to my ‘music’ folder) automatically refreshes after a few seconds.
    4. Listen and enjoy through jellyfin app/site OR through finamp (on android).

    The best part is you can rip your music into the ‘import’ folder, or torrent, or get it direct from youtube. Thanks to the modularity provided with this setup, it doesn’t matter.












  • Um, I have to disagree with your points on Go/Rust. You make Rust sound like the easier language, when in reality it just isn’t.

    And what concurrency thing are you talking abou with Go? Goroutines/channels are pretty decent in Go.

    I probably wouldn’t tell anyone to learn Rust unless they truly desired it specifically for a certain task.

    Rust is also harder to get into because everything you want to do requires a package, but on the other hand Go is much easier because of its expansive standard library.
