If we’re talking PC applications, I have been starting to use Strawberry Music Player a lot more than before for the audio files on my desktop and laptop.

For android, it’s a tie between the 2 most used apps outside of Voyager: Auxio and PipePipe.

Auxio messed up some things a long while ago, causing some of my songs on my SD card that would previously work perfectly in app to be unable to display how much time is left in a song, select specific moments, or even how long the audio file is in a very rare case. But overall just works fine enough for my local music playback needs.

PipePipe is nice enough. If yt Revanced refuses to let me play a video while in “incognito” mode, then I can just boot it up in this NewPipe fork. Also nice for the very niche time I wanna watch a video from NicoNico/NicoDouga ( Japanese video hosting platform ) because the person has the upload on there and no other official way of viewing it.

I’ll gladly take even the most worst singing done by a born deaf 5 year old before I start intentionally listening to fully AI generated music.

So I must be one of the biggest nobody’s out there.

On the whole hate speech thing, I posted something about Odysee here and someone made some hopeful “if enough people start using it and drowning out the hate speech” kind of comment. IDK if I can find it because I’d need to do a deep dive into my old .ee account, but I don’t believe that things like hate could ever be drowned out on fringe sites like that.

I noticed this too when I tried going to the website on both ungoogled chromium and TOR. Every single click would lead to a porn site that was most likely filled with 300 pieces of malware per pixel. Was absolutely a terrible experience going to that website without a functional adblock like ublock origin.

For a brief moment, I installed my newly purchased copy of Kerbal Space Program onto my laptop and now I just need to learn the controls for building rockets. That single thing is really holding me back from being the ultimate rocket building idiot.

Also got back into Gemcraft: Frostborn Wrath recently.

Otherwise I really haven’t been playing many games outside of maybe PVZ2 Reflourished on my phone or the odd game of Feudal Tactics on my laptop while waiting for something to finish.
