There are some really nice music players out there but most of them work in this kind of tree way where they show you a small image of the album, and below all of the songs, or worst, directly show you all of the songs. I generally browse by looking at album covers and there I decide what to listen, so being able to look at the covers is something I really need. So far I’ve been using Elisa, which is the one who works the best for me, but then it got bugged so I switched to Lollypop, but I don’t like the GUI as much since it is a bit messy.
Basically, something more like this:
Instead of something like this:
I’ve tried Resonance and I really like it, but it seems really alpha and with not much active development for being a relatively new project.
Dopamine. The best player after some years of searching.
Hey, honestly, yeah, it has all of this and it looks good. Sadly it is Electron, which sucks since there’s a Windows version that uses C+. I think I’m still going to use this since it seems the best option.
Agreed. I’m using the native Windows version, written in C#. The developer stopped updating it because he switched to a cross-platform version. I take his point, as not everyone has experience with the technologies that are available on all systems. Electron is the solution. However, even the older version has all the features I need and an awesome UI/UX!
I would recommend Sayonara Player for Linux. It’s not as awesome as Dopamine, but I still love it. I couldn’t find anything better for Linux!
