- gdulli 8y agoI prefer playing local files and having the feature set of a real player like foobar2000. I was on premium Spotify for a year and found some value in having access to a wider library than my own. But ultimately I got too annoyed with the compromise of low-effort software.
- seabrookmx 8y agoI'm waiting for the stream of "OMG but it's not a _native_ app it's Chromium-based garbage." I _love_ the Chromium/electron-based stuff because that's exactly the reason we have postman, Slack, Spotify, Skype, VSCode, etc. for Linux. Because it's minimal effort to make them work across platforms. A I'll buy an extra 8GB of RAM if it means I can run all the apps I want. RAM is cheap.
