I’ve seen Strawberry mentioned a lot but I’m definitely not a fan of its looks haha. Gapless on the other hand looks pretty sleek. It’s a bit less intuitive perhaps but I might give it a shot

Thanks for this tip also, will check it out

Quod Libet looks great, thanks! Probably going to go with this one. Looks pretty similar to Rhythmbox and also does #3 from my list

Seems promising, thanks! I don’t care about song position, just that it remembers which song.

Related question, what CalDAV server are you using? Been looking for something lightweight

Wasn’t Spotify Swedish tho? But yeah

Taringa, it was the go-to place for everything, especially content in spanish

Been a thing for ages in Finland, never thought it would actually expand haha

Football is being killed by FIFA, if anything

Yes indeed it’s pretty technical and content-heavy. It helped me that I took a class in university that covered many of the topics, still a few things went over my head. Maybe it’s time I do a re-read of selected chapters

If you’re asking for real, Designing Data-Intensive Applications is probably the best I’ve ever read (if you’re into that kind of thing)

Vulfpeck

Ohh. This is exactly the side project idea I’ve had on the back of my mind for a few years now. Something minimal and straightforward, just to sharpen my programming skills and learn a couple of things along the way. Maybe I’ll get around to building it some day.

“Your friends and family understand what you do”

I’ve used Exportify (https://github.com/watsonbox/exportify) to get CSVs of my playlists. I do it for kind of disaster recovery scenario, so I’ve never actually had to re-import my playlists. Judging from the readme it seems it’s possible but tedious. And as for importing to a different service, no idea.

It does require you to log in with your Spotify account though. But I think it’s trustworthy enough and also you can self host it.

Sounds like JavaScript

Hmm yes maybe. I do remember a paywall bypass extension was removed from there because publishers were complaining to Vercel. Worst case scenario I guess your website gets taken down

You can create a simple static website and deploy it to Vercel for free. You can buy a domain name and attach it pretty easily, but it’s not needed (by default website will have .vercel.app domain).

On Dream on (Aerosmith), I’ve always wondered if the couple “missing” notes from the arpeggio in 2:33 are intentional or a mistake.

JavaScript and TypeScript too
