Alright. My Void GNU/Linux, Suckless phase is probably over.
I love Void and the Suckless phylosophy, but today I just realized I have to move on from my current setup, which I have been using for probably almost a year now.
I've been losing my sh** lately over having to configure PipeWire and PulseAudio manually so that they actually work, not to mention Flatpak that doesn't work and GNU Jami not starting. Don't get me wrong, I love customizing my OS and having a good ricing session, [1/2]

> configure PipeWire and PulseAudio
I shudder at the though of doing this. Everyone hates systemd, but what I hate is PulseAudio 😅
I went to the country with my friends for several days and we used my laptop to watch some videos. It's tiny so its speaker is not loud enough for more than two people to hear. They've asked me if we could just use the Bluetooth speaker and I told them to forget about it without even trying. Because I know it involves Pulse. I'm just… scared of it 😱
@Mirk0dex Aah, bluez is fine! 😅
Actually it's wasn't that hard, I've just set it up! I didn't know bluealsa existed and thought that using PA was mandatory.
I'm not sure if it is possible to stream audio from Firefox to Bluetooth speaker as I use a wrapper apulse (otherwise audio input doesn't work at all — apparently, Mozilla wants you to use Pulse), but mpv works without a hitch!
#VoidLinux still kicks ass! I just love how straightforward and robust this distro is!
