Then why does the link to download the client lead to the MS Store instead of Github?

Your client is still Windows Store exclusive? That’s a hard pass from me.

Here we go again!

Not Open-Source, but there’s a fork called WACUP, which is Winamp with modern features.

If you’re on Desktop just use VLC, or try running Nova in an Android VM. Most Linux users are the type to meticulously organize their files, so I wouldn’t expect that there’s an app that’ll do what you’re looking for. There are plenty that will help you rename/restructure your WebDAV though.

As much as I don’t care to use Ubuntu anymore, I will always be grateful for giving 15-year-old me a comfortable and easy transition into Linux. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago, I think I still have one of the CD-ROMs they used to mail out somewhere.

If you like the interface, check out Funkwhale. It’s a federated service based on Grooveshark, but you need to provide your own mp3/flac files.

And stop following trash like buzzfeed.

Archive.org also has backups of the repo on Github.

It has full support for Audiobooks, eBooks, and Podcasts as well as the usual Music/TV/Movies.

Get a Debrid Account, setup Stremio/Torrentio and you’re set.

Open Source or Die!!! /s

My music is stored on my real-debrid account, and I use Lidarr and Debrid Media Manager to manage it. For a player/streaming server I’m currently using Jellyfin, but I’ve used Navidrome and Plex in the past and found them to work great.

All my local music is stored on a NAS which Jellyfin also has access to.

edit: For the lazy there’s always SpotifyX for Desktop, and XManager for Android.

If you’re this concerned, why are you using a bank at all? You strike me as a cash under the mattress type.

I did. That’s how I ended up with 300GB of Music. In the end my storage space was more valuable to me, and it frees up some of my server’s resources as well.

Once I discovered the Ad-Free patch for Spotify I shutdown my Lidarr. Much less hassle, and it freed up a solid 300GB of space on my NAS.

I’m a member of Amnesty International, and I’ve sponsored kids through Plan Canada for about 10 years. I used to be a professional fundraiser, and those two really struck a chord with me.

UNHCR (United Nations High Commission for Refugees) and MSF (Medicines Sans Frontieres) are ones I used to work with, and they both do great work too.

In Canada all registered charities are audited annually. Their financials are available online for you to review.

Holy shit, you’re absolutely batshit crazy.

Jesus Christ you belong on a list. Fucking insane dude.

What a valuable addition to the conversation /s
