I want code to right click context menu on a file and if it is a .mp4, then convert that to a .mp3 of the same name

also include an option to play faster by +25 +33 +50 or slower by -25 -33 -50 (in a sub menu)

I understand this is different depending on your system, so answer how to do it for the people who use the same system as you

    Allergic to documentation? See, this is where the free software community fucks up. Stop putting the onus of usability on the users. It’s the role of developers to make their software easy to use for people who aren’t working on it. That’s why macOS and Windows are still dominant to this day. The companies that develop them realized decades ago that laypeople don’t want to and shouldn’t have to read documentation or sift through configuration files if software can be designed so that it’s easier to use.

    Unfortunately, thanks to people like you, getting this solution across to the Linux community at large is like pulling teeth.

    I’d be happier if we could just admit, “Yeah, GUIs are better but they’re harder to implement so we don’t do it.” At least then we’re being honest and not trying to blame users for the lack of developers.

    As it stands right now, your rhetoric actively discourages people to take up GUI development because you keep trying to make it a user problem, not a developer one.
