Winamp is going open source, and it feels like the early 2000s again
(www.xda-developers.com)
I miss Wesley Willis.
Haha no way! At this point I can't think of a reason to switch from VLC, but I'd love to see a Winamp renaissance.
I've used so many other FOSS solutions to replace winamp at this point, and they're all functionally the same. I remember liking the interface of Clementine at some point, but honestly I don't think I have any loyalty to any specific music software anymore.
Been using Foobar2000 since '03 (and now on mobile too). No need to change back.
While I wouldn't mind it if it's worth the time, I recently played around with Audacious with skins and found a skin that made it look exactly like winamp. I can't move jt around in KDE Plasma 5 in Wayland, but it does work well in Enlightenment 0.26 on X11.
