vlc is always one of the first things I install on any machine of any OS. Who even uses the built in media player?

Imho, mpv is better. It has better support for AV1, is faster, and has no problems with audio, but VLC has a better interface with more options. I made the transition from VLC to MPV a few months ago and don't regret it.
