Finamp: AirPlay 2 support
It's worth noting that shairport-sync exists. Perhaps it could be made easy by knitting some functions together?

Whole home sync'd rpi audio w plex, spotify, airplay
You want SnapCast. You'd run snapserver on your Linux box and snapclient on your Pi's. Snapserver has support for Airplay (via shairport-sync) and Spotify (via librespot). I recommend using MPD for your music library, as I don't think PlexAmp can output audio in a way that's useful for snapserver.

RaspberryPi Now Playing Dashboard using last.fm data and Airplay receiver

Curious to see if everyone pays full price for sonos products or are there ways to get discounts? Would appreciate any guidance to save $s.
If you’re interested, you might be able to get Airplay 1 & 2 support by running shairport-sync on your pi.

Review Request - First Circuit Design (Onion Omega 2 Stereo DAC Hat) | Any Suggestions Please
The plan is to run shairport-sync on the Omega 2 and have audio output to a 2x50w class d amplifier board.

Whole Home Audio - Design Help
To replace it, I've purchased in-ceiling speakers and a Control 4 Amp (C4-16AMP3-B) which I can control via the network. I plan on using shareport-sync for AirPlay and librespot for spotify as the sources to play music. 90% of the use for my whole home audio is for music.

Can anyone help me figure out how to use PulseAudio and ShairPort-Sync together to point AirPlay to a Bluetooth Speaker?
ShairPort-Sync allows my Mac to listen for a AirPlay with multiple instances available, each pointing to different settings as per this GitHub Issue, which would allow me in theory to run multiple AirPort plugs and output each to an Alexa. Rarely would I ever need to have them playing all at once, and at this point I don't really care about maintaining pure audio quality or latency. I just need to be able to get out of my office and move to the kitchen, then back to my office without needing to spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to move what I was listening to on my iPad into my Echo Show

How to build a raspberry pi dac
The benefit of the Pi is the open source software, in particular I use https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync in order to turn it into an AirPlay 2 receiver, which I can stream to using my phone or laptop. It's my main way of sending audio to my hifi setup.
-
Airplay2 to multiple phone
The only option I know of would be to use multiple raspberry pi’s running Shairport-Sync. I’ve been using the airplay 2 version for about a year and it works great. You might be able to build a server and run multiple instances of shairport with multiple audio cards. https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync

Has the Nest Audio been transitioned to Fuchsia?
So, after looking around, I realised that just like the Nest Hub 2nd gen, the Nest Audio also has a (sort of) exposed debug USB port. And these devices are (originally) running Linux. Since the Nest Hub 2nd gen has been jailbroken, I'm hoping that I can do the same on the Nest Audio, with a singular purpose: to inject a ShairPlay service, which would run parallel to the Chromecast services, which would allow me to use them as native AirPlay2 speakers.

How do I go about hosting a shared drive for both Windows and Linux
The TLDR is that you create the filesystem on Linux/Raspberry Pi. Then you "export" that file system via some software to remote computers. You can use Samba (https://www.samba.org/) to create CIFS shares which can be mounted by either Linux or Microsoft Windows devices. There are of course other software/protocols you can use to export the filesystems like NFS, iSCSI, CEPHFS, etc; but these are a bit more complicated than what a novice can deploy. I would start with Samba/CIFS and then branch out once you get more experienced.

Go SMB Server?

Is there any r/rust library for "net use"?
I think you want a CIFS/SMB client? A quick search turned up smbc, which looks like it does what you want. All three crates are based on libsmbclient, which is a C implementation from the Samba project.

Major Linux Problems on the Desktop, 2022 edition
> First, the article doesn't say that "Linux is not ready for the desktop" - or concern itself with this as an abstract question.
Well, it does, but in a sarcastic manner:
"Yeah, let's consider Linux an OS ready for the desktop :-)."
> Also, I find the "GNU/Linux is already ready for the desktop; I and others use it" argument tired. I've used GNU/Linux for the desktop in 1998, but it sure as hell wasn't ready then.
Conversely, that it doesn't work for certain people does not mean that "it is not ready", which the post does state (sarcastically) as I pointed out above.
> Many use cases aside...
I'm not sure how the browsing, docs and email is miserable, maybe you can expand on that. The video editing is indeed a bit limited from my experience too. However, I don't think "limited proprietary options" is a problem. The community largely and specifically avoids proprietary software. Proprietary incursions into the community are generally seen as a negative thing. And for the lack of codecs, software patents for the most part are to blame.
And then it just comes to my original statement; many things stated in the article are non-issues to most Linux users or just falsehoods:
- Neither Mozilla Firefox nor Google Chrome use video decoding and output acceleration in Linux.
Firefox does.
- NVIDIA Optimus technology is a pain
NVIDIA is a pain.
- You don't play games, do you?
I do.
- Linux still has very few native AAA games.
So "it's not ready" because it doesn't have AAA games? What a pitty.
- To be fair you can now run thousands of Windows games through DirectX to Vulkan/OpenGL translation (Wine, Proton, Steam for Linux) but this incurs translation costs and decreases performance sometimes significantly.
No, not 'significantly' for dxvk.
- Also, anti-cheat protection usually doesn't work in Linux.
For good reason. Blame the dev, and don't make it work on Linux.
- Microsoft Office is not available for Linux
Thankfull.
- LibreOffice often has major troubles properly opening, rendering or saving documents created in Microsoft Office.
And whose fault is this? Use ODT.
- Several crucial Windows applications are not available under Linux.
Thankfully. Also, 'crucial' is subjective.
- In 2022 there's still no alternative to Windows Network File Sharing.
It's available since 1992: https://www.samba.org/
- Linux doesn't have a reliably working hassle-free fast native (directly mountable via the kernel; FUSE doesn't cut it) MTP implementation.
I can transfer files to my phone just fine.
- Too many things in Linux require manual configuration using text files.
No.
etc.

Get linux samba shares to show up in windows again
I have a media server that runs ubuntu, and today I wanted to copy some files off of it from my windows laptop. But the samba shares weren't showing up in file explorer (but they showed up on fine on my macbook).
