zod000, in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

Quod Libet is my current favorite. It gives me a lot of the features and layout I used in Foobar2000 in Windows and isn’t gigantic.

lightweight media server Super fast indexing. Smooth web client. Also supports the subsonic api. I’ve been using the web client locally for some years now. I can also access my library on the go with substreamer on Android which is great. github.com/epoupon/lms

On Android its NewPipe. No ads, free, I can create playlists, and I dont have to store anything local.

ChallengeApathy,

Try RiMusic on F-Droid. FOSS front-end to YT Music, like having Premium without a subscription. Aside from some crashing and offline downloads issues, it’s great.

Thanks. Just tried it but every time I add one song to the queue, it adds a ton of others to my queue that I did not add. How do I make it stop doing that?

ChallengeApathy,

That’s odd, did you go to an artist’s page directly? I just listen to full albums rather than creating a queue so maybe that’s why I didn’t encounter the issue you’re describing.

“backpack is a small wrapper around ssh.

It transfers contents of a local file ~/.backpack and itself to remote host, sources it and continues with normal ssh session.

works best as alias ssh=backpack won’t create any files on remote hosts (even temporary) tries to fallback to normal ssh when remote shell is not bash self-replication allows you to use backpack again directly from remote host, in this case backpack will keep original local file as you go deaper from host to host.”

I’d like to take this opportunity to remind you that spotify sucks, they hate artists but love Joe Rogan. If you can’t buy albums via bandcamp, Tidal offers quality and royalties far superior to Spottily. You can transfer your playlist in a few clicks and the price is almost identical (6 accounts for like $15/m).

visnae,

One Swedish company for another. Joke aside, isn’t the whole problem with royalties in the music scene still the issue that the record labels taking 90% of profits?

iegod,

Tidal sucks for EDM. Trance and progressive in particular.

ReakDuck,

Thr issue with spotify I have is only one. Its pretty good at predicting new songs with radio that I may like and I usually use the radio feature as I dont like to repeat my own playlists over and over.

Yerbouti,

Tidal’s algorythm is excellent for suggestions and the radio feature works well. I wasn’t sure at first but after a few months of listening to my stuff, Tidal strated to get really good at suggestions. My only issue left is how picky the search engine is Any spelling mistake will get you no results, but I can live with that. I work in studio environnement so getting access to uncompressed master files is huge for me.

ReakDuck, (edited )

I gave it a short try just to see if my fav artists are there. Yes. Didnt expect this. Also feels much more serious than spotify. I will see if the algorithm does its job.

Its weird how at first it only displayed music I would never listen to or is not near the artists I selected at the beginning. I guess I need to listen and favoritize them. And wait?..

Edit: It got a bit better over time. But there are a few songs still missing on Tidal 💀

greencactus,

But didn’t they had the issue with supporting MQA, which kinda was a scam? As far as I know they now switched to FLAC, but it still feels a bit weird.

Yerbouti,

Yeah MQA felt indeed bit of a weird for a lossy codec. FLAC is a real lossless format that’s been around for a long time, I’m glad they now use it. I like the fact that Tidal can be set to different quality on wi-fi vs phone data. Anyway, Tidal is still a buisness with only profit as a goal, but they give 3 times more to artists. Best way to support artist will always be by going to shows and buying albums and merchs, but most people wants a streaming sevice so IMO Tidal is the best right now. One day maybe Funkwhale or another decentralized option will offer a real revenu model for artists.

art, in Is there any way to emulate aegis authenticator (fdroid) on an ubuntu based computer?
@art@lemmy.world avatar

You might be about to just run a native 2fa application like Authenticator.

Outside of that, Waydroid is an option.

Tauon Music Box is minimalist and is also probably the best open source Spotify player.

Sometimes I’ll just run Spotifyd and control it with my phone.

ProfessorYakkington, in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

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.

Just made the switch at the end of December alongside making my new PC. Feels very refreshing to actually be in control of my own computer. I’ve barely run into any issues gaming either, which is a welcome surprise - Proton remains one of the best things Valve has ever done.

DeaDvey, in New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux?

Not specific to Mullvad, but you can use flatpak or your distro’s package manager (probably apt) to install programs, On Ubuntu, you can open the software program and search the programs to install it, that should be the first thing to do when you want to install something rather than going to the website.
