I and many others use the RPM Fusion codecs. Who here doesn’t?
For extra fun, who doesn’t use them and isn’t on Silverblue?
I assume that only people that do not use fedora to view video or audio content can avoid the rpmfusion codecs.
What is behind your question?
Hm? I’m just being fun. Nothing really “behind” my question.
FWIW, I was perfectly fine without RPM Fusion when I used Silverblue – that’s why I added that stipulation. Firefox from upstream on Flathub has codecs and most of my life lives in a web browser.

I don’t have them installed. I’m on Kinoite and find I have enough codec support by using appropriate flatpaks.

I don’t normally add RPM Fusion repos; the AMDGPU Mesa freeworld vaapi black-screen stuff a while back made me consider it optional, and with Intel I haven’t needed it for a while!
I don’t like the idea of adding large repos if I can avoid it; RPM Fusion only really offered me HW-accelerated video playback on AMD and NVIDIA drivers.

Works fine without too though, just enjoyed slightly lower cpu temps with hardware acceleration.
My systems are 50/50 split between having them and not having them. Out of the box, pretty much all the web content I view works out of the box these days. The main thing I wind up needing is mesa-va-drivers-freeworld for hardware accelerated H.264 for streaming. Eventually I’ll be able to drop even that with AV1 streaming.
I don’t need anything from RPM Fusion thankfully. My system runs great with vanilla Fedora. In the off chance that I would be bit by a missing codec I cover that off by using a flatpak for my browser.

My laptop’s old enough that AV1 isn’t supported (at least in hardware)
