Thanks. I was a Qubes user for years, across multiple computers. When things worked well, I found it to be easier than a regular Linux install to administer. Despite plenty of time and effort, there were some issues I was never able to resolve. I often ended up either using two computers or dual/triple booting, which tended to result in spending more time in the side that "just works".

How is your personal experience now? Does youtube in a browser work well for you? How about watching a movie saved locally?

You should ask for help on the forums. In general, the Community always finds a way to solve users' problems.

I do not watch movies or Youtube very often, but it seems to be working fine.
