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?

Tauon Music Box. I just point it at my Navidrome instance and hit shuffle usually.

I've been using Tauon for years now and I still love it.

I use this with my Jellyfin server, but holy shit has it been wonky. I hit shuffle on my entire library and there's albums it's never even played and other with more plays than other albums combined.

Are you sure it's a Tauon issue and not a Jellyfin issue? I can't say I've had it mis-report play counts for me but I use it with Navidrome, not Jellyfin - maybe Jellyfin doesn't follow the Airsonic API as strictly or something?

Not sure. I've got an issue up on the git after I randomly had 30 plays on one song. New album that had been downloaded too.

This is the wonkiest application though. Feels like early Winamp days again.
