I haven't tried last.fm but I like ListenBrainz for that stuff.

Have any of you tried photoshop on Linux lately? in c/linux@lemmy.world

I'm so glad I started using Linux before getting used too much to something that doesn't support it. (If you have the time to try out different things, give Krita a shot)

How to download music from Youtube with metadata? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Right, forgot I wanted to mention that. Also, if you don't want to use such a fancy tool, many media players have a simple tag editor built in.

yt-dlp (with --add-metadata) puts the channel name in the artist field and the video title as the track name. With --embed-thumbnail, it uses the thumbnail as the album art. This can all work, but only if your artist puts just the name in the title, and uses the album art as the thumbnail. The problem is when they don't.

The easy way to have both is:

  • be trans girl
  • get a gf who's also a nerd
  • not straight romance like on TV, but who cares, lesbians are better anyway.

We're pretty much abandoned here. I still use Eternity, tho that also seems to be getting abandoned.

Sind vorhin spazieren gegangen, nachdem heute Mittag eine Demo war.

Why is wofi recommended so much? (iusearchlinux.fyi)
 

TL;DR: Wofi is unmaintained

Wofi is a launcher/menu for wlroots based compositors.

The description on the sourcehut says that it's not actively maintained. Looking at the commits confirms this: The most recent commit was 4 months ago, and the 10th most recent 10 months ago. The creator also confirms this again in a reddit comment. (libreddit link)

Yet in most places I look (sway wiki 1, sway wiki 2*, hyprland wiki**, gentoo wiki, arch wiki sway, arch wiki hyprland, awesome hyprland**) it's at least listed somewhere, often near or at the top, with no mention of the maintenance status. I also searched for comments on lemmy containing wofi and only one of them mentioned that it's unmaintained, and that under a post that's seemingly deleted.

*edited by me just now

**filing an issue (or maybe pr) tomorrow when I'm less tired

I guess it still works perfectly fine, and I'm ok with using unmaintained software (Android 9), but I'm sure there are people who would like to know that.

While I'm here, I'd like to highlight that there is an active rofi fork that supports wayland with full functionality, which is a great alternative to wofi.
