At Home:

• FLACs via mpd with a topping headphone amp and Audeze LCD2C headphones
• Vinyl using an Audio Technica LP120, a Denon AV receiver and cheap wharfedale bookshelf speakers and a Klipsch subwoofer. That Setup isn’t really audiophile tbh, especially because the room sounds terrible.
• Streaming via Qobuz on both systems

On the go:

• Everything encoded as Opus 128 kbit/s to fit on my phone. Played over Lypertek Tevy true wireless IEMs. Not really audiophile but tbh when I’m not at home I care much more about convenience as long as the audio quality is good enough.
• also Qobuz, but at MP3 320 quality to save bandwidth

I wrote my own scripts to tag the music and encode it to FLAC and Opus and use syncthing to copy the files to my phone. So whenever I add an album to the library it will be available every where I want in the specified format without any manual copying involved. It’s a little janky but has worked surprisingly well for years.

Check out Wolfgang’s Channel on YouTube. He goes very in depth on low power consumption home servers.

Exact Audio Copy and Qobuz.

Damn I hoped it was this clown orban

For now. YouTube constantly changes stuff, requiring changes to newpipe. As no one will merge these into the fork, it will stop working when that happens.

Seems like it is no longer maintained. Unfortunately that means it is only a matter of time until it breaks forever.

Firefox, Neovim, Tmux, Various KDE applications, Nextcloud, Wine, Signal, OpenSSH

Probably many more

Don’t do this. Running unpatched software is a recipe for disaster.

They are testing all the ambient on chimps.

I couldn’t find anything that supports your claim
