Two things, 1) I was trying out a gaming headset mic that I got at the goodwill (US thrift store). Yah, it's not a good as my Pinephone, so I don't think I will use it again. I just don't have a proper microphone yet, soon! 2) Screencasting can degrade video playback sometimes. So the lowered framerates on the TH-cam playback is because of screencasting, it's generally really good. Enjoy!
Your mic is fine and has less echo than the pinephone in speakerphone mode. But even that is good enough. I hope you keep using the mic. Also your frame rate was fine to me.
Do you do your content creation like video and audio editing on your BSD OS?? How do you set it up? Your audio and video look pretty ok at the moment, I barely noticed any flaws at all had you not commented on it before.
A bit unrelated, I just wanna say those who ported and maintain browser ports like FF and Chromium are doing god's work. Looking at number of patches alone gives me anxiety.
It is okay for people to advocate to you the advantages they see to using browsers, text editors, window managers, desktop environments, operating systems, cloud, virtualized, bare metal, self hosting, what type of hardware, anything they can think of. But they cross the line if they say they use the right one and you use the wrong one. Root BSD you and most of the commenters in your channel have conducted that discussion amicably and respectfully. Keep up the good work.
I was using OpenBSD-current on my thinkpad t440 and upgraded it every other day or so. Then my SSD died. I also had -current on Vultr and upgraded it daily. That specific cloud VM also stopped booting and would not even boot after I tried installing FreeBSD and then Fedora. Now I use -release on my laptop and router, and -current on two cloud servers. I update -current monthly without issue. -release does indeed get new Firefox and Chromum versions backported to it when there is a security concern. Major props to those port maintainers! But both of those first OpenBSD-current installs were before FFS2 was introduced. Now it would probably be fine.
Do you get "attacked" over browser choice? It seemed a bit sad how concerned you were with having to defend your use of some Google technologies. Like you said, Google has lots of bad things about it like most companies. But fanatics never should attack people for not matching themselves in their zealotry. To the extent you can, ignore them and just do your thing. For the record, I'm using Windows 10 and Edge and Brave. I use whatever I want and switch around now and then. There's not a company that's the good one, they are all different degrees of bad and it can fluctuate which of them are the worse ones.
Yes, I've gotten criticized multiple times for using chromium. It just works the best in OpenBSD, I dont have disdain for Firefox or anything like that.
@BoulderBro999 why? It is ok with FreeBSD, problem is happening on OpenBSD. Might be a hardware problem because I am using intel hd graphics 1000 which is not supported by intel driver in OpenBSD. (it says on the manpage)
If it makes you uncomfortable then don't use OpenBSD. Firefox on Linux depends on Rust, and I don't see how that's any different. Python is a perfectly fine tool, it's heavily used in the free software ecosystem.
@@root_dnb What distro has Firefox that depends on Rust? Afaik, neither Debian, Arch or Slack have a Firefox that depends on Rust. Perhaps you meant it's built with Rust? If so, being built with Rust (a compiled language) and having Rust as a dependency are two very different things. Most browsers in OpenBSD aren't built with Python, but have a dependency (often desktop-file-utils or pcre) that does. Mainly because they want to support desktop environments like MATE and XFCE. While Python is "fine", but theres a good reason why it's not in the base install while Perl is. Python is a far less mature language than Perl, and much more complex. Unlike Python, the version of Perl in the base install has been well audited by the OpenBSD team. Either way, the point I was making is that unfortunately even the simple browsers with/without JS (like Dillo or Netsurf) aren't very simple or lightweight. Of course this kind of complexity is hidden on most Linux distros. Nice video comparing (almost) all the browsers on OpenBSD.

Sir now librewolf also support openbsd your thoughts?

Thanks! I get most of the zealots on the fediverse. It's okay, they are my friends too, we just roast each other sometimes.
I'm getting ready to install OpenBSD in my Mac Pro. Looking forward to it! :)

@KK S I've not measured or manually set my CPU temperature; because it has not overheated for me.

degoogled-chromium is now in the release ports.
Firefox can’t use hardwaare acceleration and idk why
How can I set graphics acceleration for firefox in xsession?

What is the text font you are using in Firefox?
Every graphical web browser on OpenBSD depends on Python. I find this slightly strange & uncomfortable.
