VLC media player is always there for you. Windows Video can’t open a .mov file? VLC. Want to watch a ripped DVD? VLC. Music, images, file conversions, streaming, audio, subtitles? VLC.
And you can get it on every device you need.
Get a new computer and want to run with the defaults for a bit? That’s fine, but who do you always go back to? VLC doesn’t care if you run with another program for a while. Not in the sense that it doesn’t care about you, but more it knows you need space to try something new sometimes, and it’s always ready for you to come back.
VLC also never asks anything of you. No dontations, no signups, maybe it needs an update every now and then, that’s all.
VLC is just always there. It thinks it’s in the background, but I notice its hard work. VLC is like the Garrus of media players. It was always there for you, and when you get your heart broken by another program, it’s still there. Because it was always there for you.
In so many words, what I’m trying to say is; I want to ***** that traffic cone **** my *****.
Heard you. VLC is legendary software. I’ve been using the same media player for 20 years. No enshittification. Use it to watch movies on my computer, to listen to music on my phone. Hell, I’ll use it to trim a video if I’m feeling lazy. I’ll probably be using it for another 20 years.
Obligatory:
I want to install that traffic cone software my computer
This is the light path interpretation of the phrase
No thank lib, I will never move on from the CCCP

Do not smooch the traffic cone
fellas, hear meow:
I am with mpv
I’m too mpv-pilled for vlc these days 😔
For the while (a few years), VLC had a hard dependency on an old version of FFmpeg (4, the current version is 7), which made it rather annoying to use alongside more modern video software like Blender or OBS. It appears this has finally been fixed though.
Real ones use mpv+uosc with a decent conf. Or smplayer
my mpv setup is tailor made for youtube. mpv is an mvp lol
Oh yeah it rules
Is this the “a car won’t mind if you have another car” pasta?
I’m actually not familiar with that one. I more based this on an article I read on why so many women like Garrus from Mass Effect
I haven’t read this specifically but I’ve seen these sorts of boomer-ass jokes around the place
At first I was like this is not a bad post.
But then I was like, this is still not a bad post!
But then I was like, this is a bad post.
Gotta keep you hooked until the end for the Bad Post Proof.
And, the idea of wanting to fuck a media player program isn’t bad enough for you?
I’m not one to yuck your yum. But you achieved bad post status just in the nick of time.
