Great show, thanks! I don't understand why Microsoft with their newly stated commitment to the opensource community is not contributing an NTFS driver for Linux themselves.

[ShaunakHub]

It will be great if you do a video on the difference between Pipewire & Pulse

[popcorny]

I would definitely appreciate a video about pipewire vs pulseaudio!

[ruthsmith]

Yes for the Pipewire/Pulse vid.
Cheers.

[LeonisYT]

All those dog puns made me die inside xD

[guilherme]

If Canonical really wants to improve Ubuntu's image as a 'gaming distro' there is a long way to go and I don't think Canonical is willing to go down that road.
A video about Pipewire would be great.👍.

[DonaldWyman]

A. Yes, please do a video on pipewire vs pulse audio. I keep hearing it's better, but just want to see or know how. I have been running pipewire for over a year but I don't do video/audio stuff outside consumption, so I don't really know the difference.

B.steam and snap=gross.

C. good for the patent troll. Glad to see that die.

D.the barking bit was pretty funny lol

I've tried pop-os 22.04 after Fedora's delay, and it's amazing. Pop Shop wasn't highlighted very well but there's no issues with it anymore- it just looks good and works. Combined with refresh option and good use of hinting, I think it's a great newbie distro.

I kinda laughed at the barking one. It's a minor thing but it just feels so Gnome to have a minor issue and their answer is to just remove the whole thing.

For twitter, I only use it to browse jp fanarts so it's whatever. I really don't want Trump back on the platform, though, because Trump Presidency is honestly more exhausting than the entire pandemic even as an Asian and I just don't want that back.

[MyReviews_FOSS]

I laughed out loud at those puns, because they were unexpected. 😂

[zparihar]

Make a video of why you're a fan of Pipewire. Audio just works for me on Kubuntu LTS 20.04

[MarkConstable]

Yes, please make a Pipewire video! Heh, me like that smash button... again.

[mochiebunny]

agreed, how did they not call it cinnabuntu lol

[nir]

coming up: Samsung removes the dripping sound because it makes people want to pee.

[muammar]

I want a "nyaaa" sound in Gnome. I want my PC say "nyaaa"....

[forandonbehalfof]

Errr.... I keep saying the same thing: Get into MacroS|-|1|T instead of linux if it's p'n'p. Google managed it with (stolen) Android, Mint almost manages it, Ubuntu are OK.
People want to drive their car and don't care how it works until it breaks down.

[thingsiplay]

26:29 "Wuff"
Thank me later.

Put your hand up and step away from the dog puns! I'm a fan of bad puns and dad jokes -- I've even encouraged you in comments to past videos to keep doing them -- but you just used up your entire year's (and maybe 2023's, too) allowance for them!!

[damarla]

I think gnome shouldn't remove the barking sound, i personally like the dog barking sound in gnome, i use it on my laptop.

[DenzNoble]

About twitter, as a non american or european. I don't find anything negative about it, the news industry polarized the west to the breaking point lol

[breadmoth]

i do not see what the problem is with twitter, it suddenly improved - don't like it, build your own twitter :)
