From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mine is Strawberry since it has a ton of options and plays a ton of formats. It's also (distant) fork of Amarok 1.4 and integrates well with KDE Plasma. I'm curious what other people are using these days. What's your favorite player?

Clementine. Strawberry is getting there but still doesn't have as many features.

Edit: huh, I didn't expect a downvote on Lemmy for my opinion. Is reddit leaking through? Weird.

Yeah I miss the visualizations in clementine, and project M doesn't seem to work for me on my system w strawberry. It loads but it doesn't seem like it's responding to playing music.

[–] westyvw@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Depending on how it's packaged, the visualizations might be missing. I noticed that too.

I use apple music. On linux I use Ciderwhich is amazing. Super clean interface and lots of nobs to turn in order to make everything sound and behave the way I like. If you like apple music or are looking for a streaming solution cider is awesome.

Foobar2000 has been here for YEAAAARS, and I don't think there is a good enough equivalent for linux, and by that I mean playlist tabs, global shortcuts, etc

It's the best. Thankfully it still works just fine under Wine, even if I haven't really bothered to use it there lately.

I usually listen to music on YouTube when I'm using a computer. When I play my own music, it's from my Plex server with plexamp with a phone. I rarely use the plexamp desktop app.

Firefox (invidious). Its free, no ads, and I dont have to store files locally.

[–] jcrabapple@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

Plex or Plexamp with Tidal integration.

[–] dan@upvote.au 1 points 1 year ago

On Windows, I like Plexamp since I can keep all my music on a Plex server and access it whereever. There's a Linux version but I haven't tried it on Linux yet.

cmus is my favorite, elisa is my second favorite.

I used to use Amarok, but now I have a subscription to Youtube Music. It gives me a lot of flexibility on running it in a browser or on Android without worrying about syncing.
