Just mpv for me. Simplest and most versatile option

I will never install a Linux desktop without a snapshotting root filesystem ever again. Nvidia driver updates, /boot getting too full during kernel or driver updates, a bad update of pipewire half a year ago, and more I can’t remember. Was always able to boot to previous snapshot of the OS, and address whatever it was. Some ZFS here, some BTRFS there… and my small fleet of Linux desktops are as easy to recover as any immutable OS. Better even, because snapshots allow me to pull individual items or things between states easily, too.

You can migrate all your keys to KeepassXC.

Strawberry if I had to have something visual with buttons.

cmus right now because it loads my rather large library in a split second. mpd works great as well.

More important than the player for me is sorting, though. Beets is my saviour. I could never sort the 5 or 6 albums I get by hand and tag them by hand.

I used to like deadbeef as well, quod libet is great. There really is something for everyone when it comes to something for music. If only there were as many great email clients.

I really like Elisa.

I mostly use it to listen to music that’s not in my Jellyfin library yet but it does that beautifully.

I wish you luck… but honestly, it sounds like a lot of painful steps to get the exact same thing that a solid config flake in NixOS would get you.

I use NixOS btw. ;)

ultra,

As a NixOS user myself, I agree

digdilem, in What's the best way to have a .bashrc that I can use throughout systems?

I uses Uyuni to push config files out to the machines I’m working on, including .bashrc files, .vimrc and all kinds of little QOL improvements.

Probably overkill just to use Uyuni for that, though.

Tauon Music Box available on Github. You look for albums by typing on your keyboard. Once you see the result which says “Artist”, hit enter. It creates a playlist which shows all the albums of that playlist. The next time you want to listen to that artist, start typing and select “[Artist name] playlist”. This concept differs from playlists, because it doesn’t actually create playlists you can use or export. I just like the UI, although the play controls are bit weird, they don’t quite work the way you’d expect them to.

Sorry cant hear you, too busy computing with the safety switched off and the action set to full auto.

As an IT Technician/Sysadmin I highly recommend you use the one your IT team told you to use. If you run into issues they’ll be able to help but not if your using some obscure app they’ve never heard of.

Dolphin + mpv for me so I can see the album covers and metadata and see whats available, if I have a specific song in mind, then ill just use the terminal and mpv.

Definitely. I use Timeshift on Linux Mint Debian Edition and set it to take weekly snapshots. Saved my bacon about 2 weeks ago when a kernel update borked my system.

What desktop do you use?

yianiris,
@yianiris@kafeneio.social avatar

I never use one, useless fluff/hype, I use a wm.

Near double the size and resources for having a dock/bar/menu and pinning icons on the background .. too much clutter for things hiding behind whatever you are doing most of the time.

A desktop is something you use to impress someone using mac/msWin ...
