Docker Acquires Mutagen
Note for the confused (maybe just me?), this is not related to python-mutagen[0], the metadata library.

Resonance: Intuitive Music Player
I actually originally wrote Resonance in entirely in python when I was first learning how to make gtk4 / libadwaita applications. This first version used the mutagen tagging library for importing tags, which was written for the quodlibet player. Eventually, through the course of developing Resonance, I ran into noticeable latency issues with a sizable enough library. This was due (I think maybe due to this?) to how gdk pixbuf loading worked within PyGObject. This was especially an issue with the main album grid flowbox. (Loading a ton of album covers made it super laggy)

Saving of MP3 Tags

Looking for a music library app that can handle multiple artist/genre tags like Quod Libet does
It looks like Quod Libet, ExFalso (it's tag editor) and Mutagen its tagging library are the only ones that really do support actual multiple tags, both writing (Mutagen and ExFalso) and reading/playing/acting as a music library with Quod Libet…

When you use a Walkman the memories come back: the people in love with old tech
My primary way to play music is from my self-hosted navidrome[1] server with my collection of albums I've mostly purchased from bandcamp. I can stream it to many different devices at home or on the go.
But sitting next to my bed is a Walkman (actually a $10 Jensen version) with a few of my favorite cassettes in the nightstand drawer. Granted, I listen to raw black metal, so the format fits the music well, but I really enjoy just popping in a cassette and hitting play. When I "metaltate", I listen to full albums and do not want to ever be interrupted or have skipping audio due to bluetooth or anything else. It is a really simple and great experience.
Would I ever take my walkman with me or want to carry around a bunch of tapes on a trip? Of course not! But it does have a time and place that is valuable.
When friends come over, we use either vinyl or my custom built RFID cards. There is more of a ceremony to digging through a physical stack of albums and being forced to listen to the album front to back.

Ask HN: Managing MP3s on Mac/iOS Without Streaming Services
Basically, you run a server on your Mac that scans your music collection and "broadcasts" it to the network (LAN or WAN) via either the venerable UPnP/DLNA[1] family of technologies or the newish Subsonic API[2]. Of course, there are others, like DAAP or AURA, etc..
From there, you need to point a compatible player to said server to play your music on any supported device.
If you want to listen to your music on the go, pairing a Subsonic-compatible server on your Mac and a Subsonic-compatible app on your iPhone is probably the way to go. On the server side, I have only used the original Subsonic[3], which was good, but Navidrome[4] seems to be OK. But be aware that the whole "scene" is super messy and fragmented, with the usual abandoned forks of open source alternatives of everything.
Note that this means opening your local network, which comes with its own complexity.
This r/selfhosted thread[5] should give you an idea.
My use case is slightly different. I only care about streaming to my Denon CEOL mini system, which only supports UPnP/DLNA, so my current setup is:
- All my music is stored on a 2011 Mac Mini,
- I use Kazoo Server[6] (not perfect but reliable) to stream it to my audio system,
- which I control via the HEOS app provided by Denon.
Whatever stack you choose, make sure your files are tagged correctly and consistently.

.NET 8 Standalone 50% Smaller On Linux
Jellyfin is great for movies & shows. As an anecdote, it's not so good for music if you're a collector. I personally use Navidrome for that[0].
Anyway, Sonarr[1] makes use of .NET, too. Very reliable software, in my experience.
