Any reason to switch to this from winamp?

Tanza@kbin.social 10 months agomay I recommend Strawberry on desktop? It's really nice to use with large collections! https://i.imgur.com/ViOJK6B.png

I’ve tried it, not my cup of tea. Rhythmbox conforms to my GTK4 theme a lot better, and the layout is so much more suited for me.
I feel that Strawberry’s layout is ugly as sin, but hey, everyone seems to think Rhythmbox is ugly so maybe that’s just me.
I admire any active music library management app tho. Seems like there aren’t that many people with local music libraries anymore, so we don’t get many new apps like Strawberry or Rhythmbox where MTP transfers, tag editing, lyrics, etc are big focuses. So cheers to the devs of Strawberry and thanks for the recommendation!
My dream is for Rhythmbox to be ported to libadwaita, but that doesn’t seem to be in the cards. All the latest GTK4 music players are extremely simple, with no library management features whatsoever. Think Amberol, GNOME Music, and G4Music. I wish I had learned some C when I was young and had the time so I could just port it myself.
