  • beets

    music library manager and MusicBrainz tagger

    • Idk what you mean by "Linux app" but I use beet[1] and it's superior to any manual tagger software I've used.

  • strawberry

    :strawberry: Strawberry Music Player (by strawberrymusicplayer)

  • Navidrome Music Server

    🎧☁️ Modern Music Server and Streamer compatible with Subsonic/Airsonic

    • Navidrome added a feature similar to what you're describing (they call it smart playlists https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/releases/tag/v0.47.0). Beets also has something similar (https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/smartplaylist...).

    I replaced my usage of spotify with these two and its been great. I also enjoy having fine grained control over my listening, and streaming services were sorely lacking.

  • Georgia

    Dynamic foobar2000 theme

    • I've been using foobar2000 since the 90s. It plays music quickly, but I really love the extensive tagging and ripping functionality. Another plus is its interface skinning flexibility. There are recently made "modern" looking themes if that's your thing. I'm currently using Georgia[0].

    A powerful little TUI framework 🏗

    • someone should really port cmus to use bubbletea: https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea

  • FiraCode

    Free monospaced font with programming ligatures

    • Sure. Since it's less of a theme and more of a custom configuration, here is a link to the installation (it's a portable install, so no need for folders in `AppData`. Just place this anywhere, and run foobar.exe): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/j9yfv18j8b2mss4/AABgDgZUfm0KuvEi6...

    Additionally, I use the 'Fira Code' font for the UI, so you must have that installed if you want your foobar to look the same. That font is freely available here: https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode
