I use Foobar and Plexamp to listen to my FLAC collection. I have a lot of magazine CD inserts not readily available on the streaming platforms. Just feels really good knowing companies like Spotify aren’t making a dime off me.

Never heard of foobar, and honestly surprised it doesn't have a linux version. It has a windows phone version, but NOT linux.

I know I shit on linux a lot on this site for having a small userbase, but COME ON!!! You make a windows phone version but NOT a linux version??? At least linux has something like 5% of the pc market userbase. And while that may be mockingly small, windows phone probably only ever had 5 users total!

You know it's bad when I'M the one insulting a program for not having a native linux port.

Most personal computers run Linux.

Because most personal computers are phones.
