The funniest thing is, people say Linux is not ready, cause [insert feature] doesn't work. The problem is said feature doesn't work on Windows either.

For example pausing/resuming playback across multiple appliacations using media keys. It's not perfect on Linux (not every app uses MPRIS), but it's not great on Winodws either

Hell tbh I never use my pause/resume button, I just hit "p." I <3 VLC

Yeah, but that works on VLC only and it has to be focused. With MPRIS you can eg. pause a song playing in mpd, while having VLC focused

Good thing I really only use VLC for videos, and Clementine for audio very rarely, and if I'm done with the music and switching to video I can just exit Clementine! I use the volume keys all the time though, since I sadly lack physical buttons.

It works way better on Linux. I especially like the gnome screenshot tool

Try flameshot or spectacle, way better.
