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?

+1 for navidrome running on my nas

I use the navidrome server and web player on my Linux os and my phone.

You use supersonic to connect to navidrome as the front end? Any advantage?

Navidrome’s web player is actually pretty good and I could totally live with it if third party clients weren’t an option. Supersonic is more performant when loading 1800+ song playlists though, and infinite scrolling instead of the paginated web library is really nice.

Thank you. Yes the infinite scrolling would be nice.

I haven't loaded that many playlists or songs yet so I will keep an eye on performance and remember supersonic..

Cheers mate!
