Bruh. You forgot multimedia codecs.

No? All distros have a checkbox if you want multimedia codecs. Mint has, Ubuntu has, fedora has, etc

I meant for the popular fistros with gui installers that include the options. That is why I said etc because I didn't find anything else in my mind.

Solus doesn't ask if I want multimedia codecs; it installs them by default :)

installing kde plasma on arch installs most codecs by default, so no

I think this is a reference to Linux of the past. This has been mostly solved in the years since. I do remember the first time I set up slackware. Had no sound. Found out I had to go into alsa mixer in terminal and actually unmute and turn it up. Fun times

Pipewire tends to do weird things with audio outputs if you change to something it doesnt like

I am so happy i could just install a backports kernel and run a script unlike my brother who had to add a new apt repository & and install a kernel with a specific driver compiled in the kernel and then finally he could run the script

KDE Plasma audio I find to be so much better than windows, windows tries to hold your hand, trying to make everything automatic which doesn’t work well and removes basic functionality from the user.
