Hi! I’m a professional timpanist with a bachelors degree in music education. Buy your kids “two-pocket folders” from Amazon or you preferred local office supply store, and teach them the importance of organizing their sheet music. This is a skill they will need for their entire lives.

Now, to give you the self-hosted answer: forScore is seriously the best app in existence. It does so much more than just store sheet music. I personally use an app called Möbius Sync which uses syncthing under the hood, to sync my forScore files with my NAS. The only caveat to this system is you need to have the app open in order to sync files. Sucks I know.

Let me finish by saying that I strongly discourage you from giving your kids forScore, as it adds a mountain of complexity to their experience with music that they simply do not need in their lives right now. Buy them cheap two-pocket folders and chastise them for leaving their paper around the house like animals. If any of them ever study music in college, then at that would be the point at which using forScore becomes worthwhile.

P.S. thank you for being so supportive of your kids interest in music! It’s great to hear of a family whose children study so much music that it’s becoming a logistical concern, lol. We need more families like yours.

I honestly had given up hope this would ever happen. For global menu enjoyers, this is the holy grail of programs that just refused to play nice.

This happened to me and I had to sit through a phone conversation with an AI twice just to get my package delivered to a pickup location hidden inside a Walmart. Once I got there they didn’t even need my ID or anything. Maddening.

I can’t tell if this is copypasta, but if it’s not, you might be a woman. Just saying.

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

This is exactly what I’ve been using since 2.0. Right before I close the game, I plop one of these down nearby with text reminding me what I’m gonna do next.

This is something I’ve wanted for a very long time! It’s such a shame that this thread is full of people discussing whether or not a global menu is even a good thing. On Debian I have literally not been able to find a single browser that respects the global menu. I’m going to try everything in this thread, and hope something finally works!

A big reason I use MPV is because of anime. I forget exactly what the reason was back in the day, but I can remember MPV being better at playing certain formats, and fan subs of anime are early adopters of new codecs. In addition, there is a very healthy ecosystem of plugins related to language learning, which again ties back to anime.

Ruffle is one of the most important pieces of game preservation currently out there, and it warms my heart to see it constantly improving!

Wow you’re right, I hate this take lol. That said, I appreciate your honesty and bravery to speak your mind, regardless of what a lot of people might think of it. It’s good to have actual discourse instead of an echo chamber on here.
