From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mine is Strawberry since it has a ton of options and plays a ton of formats. It's also (distant) fork of Amarok 1.4 and integrates well with KDE Plasma. I'm curious what other people are using these days. What's your favorite player?

First it was Amarok, then Clementine, and now it's Strawberry.

I use Clementine because it lets me rate my songs. Does Strawberry do that? If it does I'll give it a try.

Strawberry is basically a fork of Clementine from when it was abandoned.

Ditto. It'll be interesting to see what improvements there are. But mostly I use Shuttle on my phone to listen

The only thing dropped that I might have used is artist info.

Same, though I also enjoyed guayadeque for a period.
