Doesn't mention LibreOffice, Mint over Ubuntu... Debian, Gentoo, Fedora there's plenty options an a never ending discussion so use what you like. MPV on Linux is the only option since there's no MPC-HC lol. LibreWolf and Thorium over Brave and others.

You can put VLC on anything, even windows.

I meant Mint over Ubuntu as they are close competitors for the same niche of new users. Gentoo and others are targeting a different demo for different purposes. LibreWriter is LibreOffice, sorry if this was confusing.

Mpv or mpv.net can be used on windows too but still prefer mpc-hc since is still maintained in a repo also why I prefer mpc easy has better clarity and colors when displays a video this is very technical but that's what it is 😆
