discuss the superior freeware music player
>but muh jewtube premium and slopify
You're a consumerist nigger.
>but muh piracy
Pay the artist directly faggot.

>page 4
Do NONE of you use foobar2k?

>>107160061
I use DeaDBeef. It's not quite as good as fb2k, but it gets the job done.

>>107160653
>DeaDBeef
literal what
what features does it come with?

>>107160061
I use Strawberry because it has more SOVL

I have both flac and mp3 versions of the same songs.

Should I just delete the mp3 versions? Is there any advantage it does better, like being able to transfer to other devices or something?

>>107160061
I use winamp. Idk it's been working

>>107160061
I used to have it a decade ago, is it still alive?
browsing deviantart for skins brings back memories.

>>107160061
i do but i don't know what there is to discuss, it just works better than anything else
i wish there was a serious equivalent for macos because i'm not really using my windows pc these days
i also wish the mobile version was better
and i wish it was open source so i could actually fix the things i don't like
but what can you do (other than make another music player (which would take years))

>>107160949
feel free to stay mad.

>>107160977
didn't mean it that way saar

who died for ((your)) sins retard?

>>107160061
Niggerlicious. I use Feishin.

>>107161020
are you retarded?

>>107159891 (OP)
Foobar is.. okay. I liked it when I was 15. I use rmpc nowadays, the only GUI that doesn't infuriate me is Tauon music player.

>something somethings piracy
I would bet a lot of money that most foobar2k libraries are almost entirely pirated.

>>107160061
Winamp lets me use mare-related skins...

>>107159891 (OP)
for me, it's AIMP

>>107161104
are there any good skins for foobar2k anymore?
the plugins are nice but then again I can hardly find any good themes

>>107159891 (OP)
explain this, how are you searching on site?

>>107160061
Not on Linux and I'm not screwing with Wine. I use the classic mpd+ncmpcpp combo. I don't really care for the server client model or the TUI but it just werks.

>>107161143

>full of tech illiterate retards who can't be assed to search up how to do things
like pottery

I used fb2k for 15 years but I had to give up. Spotify is just superior. It's infinite music with no seeding ratio shenanigans.

>>107161153
ok faggot - i mean i know you left it off for the (you)s but still...

was 12th google result https://fy.3dyd.com/download/

>>107161153
you use windows 11 when debian 13 Trixie exists

>>107160835
thats the neat part. None! you get plugins and such for that.

>>107161193
yes because wine still isn't compatible with some of the main programs I use and I don't know or want to figure out how viable it is to have a dual boot that can access files I use on windows in the same drive it's installed to.

ngmi

>>107161223
you can just open the partition in your file manager it auto mounts it for you and everything

>>107161249
recommended distro?
I know people say mint is good, but the only hands-on experience I have is with Bodhi x32/86

>>107161271
try them and find what works for you and before picking a distro try the different DEs to see which one you like (GNOME, KDE, XFCE, etc...) try Ubuntu, Fedora, NixOS and anything else the interests (You) and as you try them you will find the one that works best for you, it depends on how much time you want to spend on your OS and what you care about (do you care about Systemd (init freedom), using only free software (fsf-approved distros), available software and and and

>>107159891 (OP)
It does everything I need and one thing that no other player does. Until another player gets that one feature, I'll never switch.

Listening to music off Youtube

>>107161445
you know what nigger. tell me you havent been online wihtout having been online for the past 10 years.
we all know youtube is shit but it has stuff that doesnt exist anywhere else. NIGGER

>>107160061
Nope, I am an xmplay chad.

>>107160061
i use my own music player

>>107161211
Fortunately, the distro I use packages all the plugins I'd ever need. Otherwise, much like fb2k, db just works. Only thing I don't like about it is that searching is much slower, but it's not a dealbreaker for me.

>>107161463
>Using 128kbps in 2025
>Muh convinience
Disgustin.

I wish the MacOS version had more customisability, but functionality is all there at least.
It's not like looking good hasn ever been the point of fb2k anyway.

>>107159891 (OP)
>>107160061
No point in it when SpotX/Spicetify exists and Spotify has lossless now.

>>107160061
it really whips the foobars ass

>no good way to connect with a subsonic server
Into the trash it goes
