gmusicbrowser VS strawberry

Gmusicbrowser is pretty good feature-wise. It's very configurable and has many different layouts. It might not look very modern by default, but with a modern gtk theme and some fiddling it looks okay to me at least.

Perl actually had a pretty good UI story way back when. Perl/Tk always was well documented and Perl's syntax works quite well with the original Tcl-ish/Shell style.

Note that GIT's default GUI parts are written in exactly that.

Tk then hit a bit of a limit when it came to common widgets, and so got less popular.

Perl also had a good implementation of Win32, if I remember correctly.

These days, both Perl and GUIs are on a steady decline, so there's not much moving in that space. Gmusicbrowser[1] is written in Perl/Gtk, if I remember correctly.

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 I would also like something that is Clementine but not 7 years out of date.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.
