cmus VS strawberry

Cmus. https://github.com/cmus/cmus

VLC can be used to play a file from the command line, but there is no user interface. Players like cmus and musikcube have a text based interface and library management.

cmus [1] is the closest I found to foobar2000. It is my main music player now, after years of disappointment. It supports FLAC and they claim they support CUE sheets, although I haven't tested your particular scenario. The way I use it is I have all my library in it at once, iTunes style. It has good search & playlists, but no drag&drop, since it's just command line...

Foobar2000 or CMus (CLI, but very simply and powerfull - but ofc no cover art without additional plugins/apps). https://www.foobar2000.org/mac https://github.com/cmus/cmus

I have a (comparatively) small collection (20gb), so here is how I do it: I use beets for the organization (https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/main.html) and cmus (https://github.com/cmus/cmus/blob/master/Doc/cmus-tutorial.txt) for playing.

Assuming you mean the pre-2.0 Amarok, you might be interested in Strawberry: https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/

It's a a fork of a fork of the old Amarok, supporting more features and modern support while retaining the original UI.

Strawberrry (https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/) is the fork, but I don't think it will do everything you want as far as plugins go. I would also like something that is Clementine but not 7 years out of date.

That doesn't always work on a Mac, so you might want to grab it's forked project, Strawberry (this is what I use on my Mac) -> https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org

If you use Clementine, I highly recommend Strawberry, it's a fork of Clementine which is updated more often, has a lot of bugfixes and QoL that I enjoy.

Strawberry for listening to audio files.

Winamp! Yes, it's a stupid option that wastes battery life, but I'm quite happy running my trusty old Winamp through Parallels. Been using it forever, and see no reason to switch. I've tried a bunch of MacOS native apps, but have never really been happy with them in the past. Strawberry shows promise though. I've had my eye on that one. I might give it another try: https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/

I use navidrome[1], its a music streaming server you can selfhost and then use a player that supports the subsonic api for playback. I use the strawberry music player on my desktop and substreamer[2] on android. Navidrome can also scrobble your music to last.fm if you tell it to.
