Is there a single music player for Linux that isn't a design clusterfuck?
>>
>>51987126
Most let you hide all the ugly bells and whistles.
Just click 'view' and uncheck all the clutter you don't need. My Audacious looks basically like Winamp.
>>
>>51987126
Used to be called xmmp. They had to change the name or got sued or some damn thing. Anyway, the best one now is qmmp.

I like mpd with mpc and or ncmpcpp.

You can make it look however you like.

>>51987403
I'm not a NEET with infinite time to fiddle around with configurations. I want something well designed with a graphical front end.
>>
>>51987364
>Still looks bad
Go see if you can disable other unnecessary crap in the settings/preferences menu
>>51987403
You can make any piece of free software look however you like.

>>51987403
please share your config, its nice!

Kill yourself faggot. I hope you flip burgers, because that's probably the only thing you are qualified for.

I'm sure messing with configurations gives you a meaningful life, but some people have jobs and other stuff to do. The only PhD you have is retardation.

I'm pretty sure that most autists here actually use command line tools to play their music.
>>
>>51988003
>Implying command line isn't objectively more aesthetically pleasing and fitting than the shitty GUIs posted above

The last thing I want if I'm working with VIM and terminals open is to have a fucking glaring white ugly box in the middle of my screen. Something like >>51987403 looks so much better and fits in better with what's already on the screen.

Nice joke, something with a well designed and intuitive GUI is going to look much better that whatever you desktop thread autists come up with.

CLI music players are shit, which is typical of most CLI programs.

But seeing as you faggots are all hipsters, you eat that shit up like an iDrone. Mutt, IRSSI, Vim, i3, newsbeuter, rainbowstream, mpd. Programs where basic functionality is either nonexistent or requires so many downright ugly hacks that it is a net waste of your time. Get a fucking life losers.

Your point? Discussion can be valuable, fiddling with music player configurations isn't something I want to spend my time doing.

If you don't want to use the best multi platform player because it "looks bad" that's your loss.

Intuitive and aesthetically pleasing design is important.
>>
>>51988420
that's cuz this is 'album' that show details about selected, you got it rite, album.
>>
>>51988500
>Intuitive and aesthetically pleasing design is important.
No, functionality is all that matters. I'm not staring at a music player, I'm listening to music and do other shit at the same time.
>>
>>51988521
>Intuitive and aesthetically pleasing design is important.

That's the very reason I use gnome even if I can't inject it with as much rice as I'd like
>>
>>51988521

You know they aren't mutually exclusive right? Intuitive design is fundamental as longs as long as human interaction exists.

Use mpd and bind keyboard shortcuts or media keys to mpc commands. That way you won't have to ever look at your music player ever, so it won't matter how it looks.
>>
>>51988570
>You know they aren't mutually exclusive right? Intuitive design is fundamental as longs as long as human interaction exists.
I do agree that they can go hand in hand, however when functionality gets sacrificed for looks, then the product is no longer as good as it was before.
Clementine is an easy to use player that looks fairly generic.
At this point though it's autism arguing with autism.

>I do agree that they can go hand in hand, however when functionality gets sacrificed for looks, then the product is no longer as good as it was before.
The opposite can also happen. I don't want my web browser to have a chat client, I want it to be a web browser. More functionality doesn't automatically mean better.

Good point, but I also don't want my URL bar to be removed so that the browser looks niver.
It's autism against autism now.

It's not autism, intuitive design is an actual thing, you know.

How is it autistic to say intuitive design is important? If anything it's the opposite of autistic.
