Nice! Speaking of Winamp - are you using any alternative music player for iOS that you would recommend?


Can't go wrong with FB2k: https://www.foobar2000.org/mac

It now has a last.fm plugin, so let's get scrobbling!


Corrected link for iOS (TIL!): https://www.foobar2000.org/ios


sweet! Thx!


I started using https://github.com/kushalpandya/Petrichor a while ago.

Though design is more akin to the default Apple Music app than WinAmp.


I've wanted a music player like the early versions of iTunes for a while, and this looks like it might fit the bill.

Those who've only known Music.app and later iTunes versions might be surprised to learn that there was a time when iTunes actually had a clean, intuitive UI: https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/itunes-app


Beautiful. I remember running iTunes 5 on my Powerbook G4, incredible how things have changed.


Interesting! Will be checking it out.


Decoupled: <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/decoupled/id1382409837>

100% offline-only. Open in Finder, drag&drop music, enjoy the untethered experience.


I love Decoupled, but the lack of updates and Apple's tendency to delist unmaintained iOS apps makes me nervous. I swapped over to VLC last year.


That's exactly what I like, airplane mode-friendly. Thanks!


I’ve been using Jewelcase for a while. https://apps.apple.com/in/app/jewelcase/id6642683626


Excellent, I like offline players best.


I like Swinsian (assuming you mean MacOS)


I really liked this too, but balked at the license fee and ended up not paying.


Swinsian was the only Mac music player I could find that could come close to replicating my old MusicBee setup. The license fee was annoying but I paid it anyway and have no regrets.
