I use Sonixd as the frontend to my Navidrome server, and it's the bees knees.

Honestly that’s 2 more than I expected.

Audacious with winamp skins, weening off windows’ foobar2000 as an old favorite, jellyamp, amberol occasionally

kurcatovium ,

Check out Deadbeef, it looks like it might be what foobar was on windows (at least partially).

InputZero ,

There is no program I miss quite as much as winamp. It really kicked the lama’s ass.

Rhythmbox. It was pre-installed on Ubuntu back when I was on Ubuntu, and I kinda just got used to it. Strawberry looks really cool though, I may have to give it a try

DannyBoy ,

Rhythmbox is great and works well for editing tags for my 15,000 track library. I went to Lollypop for a while trying to get some more features but I ended up back at Rhythmbox.

if I’m using gui on my laptop, then amberol

if I’m using my headless server, then you can’t get anything better than mpd

savbran , to linux in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

Considering that I’m using Emby (selfhost), it’s able to manage my music collection too and I can play the music from the web player exposed by it.

Hellmo_Luciferrari ,

Why emby over jellyfin if I may ask

savbran ,

Stability and configuration options. I already used Jellyfin but for me is not stable. It often crashes and configuration options are a mess at the moment.

Hellmo_Luciferrari ,

That’s fair, I haven’t ever given Emby a shot, and wanted to hear what may have drawn someone to emby over jf. Thank you

Lojcs , to linux in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

Nothing honestly. Couldn’t find a music player that doesn’t look like a file manager, has good search and queue features and doesn’t make strong assumptions about how music is organized. Tried to run Musicolet through waydroid but it doesn’t support Nvidia gpus

Otherwise_Direction7 ,

Have you tried Lollypop?

Lojcs ,

It assumes music is organized by albums. No options to view by folder or track.

I also mostly use VLC these days. I also use it on android, with a copy of my flac library on my microSD there too.

Audacious with a winamp skin. Nostalgic.

So fast and satisfying to navigate around

How do you get dark mode in Strawberry under KDE? I remember trying to follow some guides and not having much luck. But that was a long time ago at this point. Does this “just work” now?

const_void OP ,

Should just work with the defaults but check these settings:

GenderNeutralBro ,

Thanks! I checked and actually, dark mode was already on. Huh. I guess I haven’t tried since…I don’t even know. Maybe I didn’t have qt6 installed last time?

mpd + ncmpcpp

TheEntity , to linux in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

MPD + ncmpcpp, I hate both and I'm yet to find anything better.

ElderWendigo ,

I feel this. If you could right click to interact with the text objects, then this combo would basically feel like foobar2000 for linux. I’m old enough to have missed how great foobar2000 felt after WinAmp started to get bloated (back before I got my hands on some Linux ISOs), so MPD + ncmpcpp just felt so refreshingly stripped down and a little nostalgic. I just fucking hate having to memorize a bunch of non-intuitive hotkey combos to do anything. Probably the same reason I’ve never bothered to properly learn Vim.

TheEntity ,

I'm an Emacs graybeard, so complex keybindings don't scare me. My problem with ncmpcpp is twofold:

  1. It relies on MPD which is always a PITA to properly configure. Pulseaudio always managed to make it not work on a fresh system. Hopefully with Pipewire it'll be better.
  2. The config format make no sense whatsoever. Especially the one with keybindings. It's so cryptic I just stopped trying to understand it. Again, I'm an Emacs graybeard, to stress it as a point of reference.

Emacs does have a music player, emms, which is what I use.

M-x package-install RET emms RET

TheEntity ,

I'm aware but thank you. I've tried it before and didn't like it. Maybe I'll give it another shot, though I don't see much benefit in tying my music player to Emacs.

When I’m using Windows, I still use foobar2000 for listening to radio streams.

Amberol for its simplicity and esthetics
