Spotydown.media worked for me, but sometimes it gets stuff so wildly wrong that i am guessing he pulls the stuff from another library and takes the closest match for the name. Doesnt seem to be YouTube though, never had intros, outros or music video noises

I am with you in this one!

If something is "easy to use" this includes the time you need learn said thing.

Drinking rahmen from the bowl is easier then using chopsticks (even if you are more elegant with chopsticks)

Driving automatic is easier then driving manual (even if you may be more efficient with manual if you practised shifting a lot)

Walking is easier then flicflacs (even if you may be faster with flicflacs if you practised a lot)

Using Ubuntu is easier than using arch (even if arch gives you more control and opportunities if you understand it)

Well its shown to you at the bottom of the screen what it does...

And if you want Ctrl v,c,s etc. To work like in word etc you can always use nano --modernbindings

Well okay by that logic playing Beethoven on piano is super easy

Better? Maybe!

More efficient? Surley!

But easier?! Hell no! Easy means you can use it without a lot of training or studying. It is self explanatory. And there is no way on earth that vim is easier than nano. I don't need to know anything to use nano I need to check docs for hours before I can even start using vim

Dunno what you used, but nano is literally a text editor that may be simple simple but it just works. Shortcuts are shown to the user, buttons work like you expect them to (arrow keys, ESC, shift, etc)

With vim you open it and if you haven't read 5pages of doc you won't even be able to close it again. I see that its useful for power users, but for casuals who just want to edit a config once in a while nano is absolutely the way to go imho

Calibre has an Export Funktion which may ve of use

In Debian KDE KDEConnect works well. Dont know about suse but can imagine it works there too

EDIT: grammar

Hm seems like the local discourse is kinda f up. I can imagine the same for conservative parts of Europe. Still IMHO we should not let terms (mostly used in interleft discussions) get destroyed by the far rights low insight in the details of left politcs

HM... Are you defending (authoriatharian) policys of historical socialism a lot? Because i am in the the left side of the political spectrum too, and didn't have this experience on Lemmy. Maybe its because I frequent European. Communities more often, where there is not so much red scare as in America.

I have also beend called a communist, also in real life, but this wasn't meant as an insult but as a description. I argument in favor of a democracy without capitalism, maybe with councils (strange that there seems to be no English word for "rätesystem" which doesn't involve worker or soldiers, which is to exclusive IMO), so calling me a communist/socialist is understandable and (apart from some very rare instances) wasn't meant to discredit me.

I have never been called a tankie though, and have never (even online) seen someone get called a tankie who had undogmatic views. People will defend dictators like Stalin, then define everyone who doesn't agree with Stalin as "libtards" and then get upset when undogmatic socialist who get mislabled that way call them tankies.

Sure, as with every buzzword misuse cases will exist, but most peoples argument is that they use the term for "everyone on the left spectrum" so its is meaningless, but for them the left spectrum only includes tankies, and they just define everyone else as not left.
