I know this may cause some disagreement here but the thing that currently annoys me most about the #Pinephone is that I still haven't found a way to run #Youtube in 480p without dropping half of the frames. I also don't have any good solution to listen to Youtube or #Spotify music, while Youplay somewhat works it lacks Playlists, Channels and takes years to load. Has anyone found any decent way to use pure mpv and a somewhat usable interface?
@gamey, I used to work on a cursed youtube-dl wrapper that might support some of your use cases: https://pypi.org/project/comp/ It's no longer maintained though due to my lack of interest.
@mcsinyx I think I have to set up Arch from scratch before pip packages will work again. Thanks for the tip, I will try it on another SD card when I find time :D (I fu**ing hate python it's a nightmare for endusers)
@gamey, I wonder what was the exact problem you encounter and if I can do anything to help. The only distro I recall have issues by design with Python packaging ecosystem is NixOS/GuixSD, and it limits to extension modules only (those that are compiled from C/C++/etc.).
@gamey, if the entry point (i.e. Python script) is not in PATH, then probably it's because pip by default (since 20.x) installs to user site-packages in ~/.local. I think most distro nowadays default ~/.profile to have ~/.local/bin in PATH but your personal configuration might differs.
@mcsinyx I will just avoid pip for now. Always only have issues with it anyway so it's probably for the better. Luckily I am on Arch so the AUR can balance out big parts. I am not a fan of all those extra package formats anyway if that continues we will have one package format per language one per distro and a thousand others who are "sandboxed".
@mcsinyx I think it comes down to me not understanding pip good enough and breaking things. Currently I can install things from pip but I can launch them for whatever reason.
