Spotify 😳

I see it mentioned once above, so I'll second Musicolet as an app to play local music. Didn't even ask for the Network permission on install and lots of sorting/filtering options for local music collection.

Ah, thanks. I ended up using a burner google account and privacy.com card. Have since uninstalled Play Services and the app still works great. Really loving it.

Poweramp in order to play my CD rips + web store purchases (Bandcamp etc.).

Where are you buying digital albums these days (besides from Bandcamp
)? Or are most of you still ripping from CDs?

Using Finamp (for my Jellyfin instance) and Deezer.

tuxsudo Thanks for the tip on Symfonium, way better than Finamp :)

I rip CD's, save the files to pCloud, open the files using pCloud on my 6A, install the music files on the phone then use Muzio player which scans the phone and adds the tracks. Muzio Player presents songs, albums etc, creates playlists and all one would expect. It is a tedious process, always looking for a simpler way, thinking of going back to just using a CD player.

I seldom listen to music these days, but when I do, it’s from CD’s rips I did on my computer, and which I transfered to the phone over MTP. I use VLC as a music player.

Spotify with my Sony wf1000xm4 paired with Gadgetbridge.

It is the only non FOSS app I use on my main profile, I will look at alteratives to this post. Thanks for your suggestions!

Pixel 6a - GrapheneOS

For my mobile setup I use Auxio with my Bandcamp FLAC library and my CD library.

Desktop - Debian - Sid/ Unstable

For my desktop setup I use Tauon Music Box with my Bandcamp FLAC library and my CD library.

Audio - Sony WH-1000XM4

For my Audi setup I use the WH-1000XM4. I fixed my first pair of the XM4 until they broke after wear and tear, bought the same set again instead of the XM5, and I will continue to fix and buy XM4's until they break a second time due to wear and tear.

ViMusic, it's just a YouTube Music front-end and it tends to cache songs so it takes up a decent amount of space. I love it, free, no ads, and mostly privacy respecting(YouTube backend sure isn't). The only thing I don't like is that I can't really control what gets cached, I wish it were easier just to download any song I choose.
