All Linux players are shit

Gnome Music uses retarded index caching so if you add music to your library you either need to force it to reindex your drive, or reboot a couple times and hope it realizes it has new files
Musique has broken album art display
Tomahawk is botnet
Clementine has a gorrillion KDE dependencies

Your options are terminal shit, broken shit, or ugly shit

I haven't tried lollypop but it looks nice so maybe that isn't shit

sorry anon I don't want to have to install 13 desktop environments to play an mp3

I guess if you're already using KDE it's nice to have not shit software available though, maybe if plasma and dolphin didn't take so much effort to make usable there would be an impetus for GNOME to not be shit

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux,
is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component
of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell
utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day,
without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU
which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are
not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a
part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system
that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run.
The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself;
it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is
normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system
is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux"
distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

No, Richard, it's 'Linux', not 'GNU/Linux'.
The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were
the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler.
Those are fine and inspired products.
GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS,
and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.

Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.

One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS -- more on this later).
He named it 'Linux' with a little help from his friends.
Why doesn't he call it GNU/Linux?
Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you.
You named your stuff, I named my stuff -- including the software I wrote using GCC -- and Linus named his stuff.
The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so.
Linus has spoken. Accept his authority.
To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don't want to be known as a nag, do you?

>>54288594
Upon further research, when Clementine diverged from Amarok they removed the KDE dependencies

Maybe Clementine will be the music player to prove Linux software isn't always shit, how about I give it a test drive and... oh, no, still shit.

This is the only real solution on GNU/Linux unless you want to sacrifice usability.
