brew install failed on macos % brew install kew ... kew: Linux is required for this software. Error: kew: An unsatisfied requirement failed this build.
EDIT: Added.
It doesn't fit my use-case very well, though. I'm not saying it needs to, but I'm going to put my use-case out there in case someone is looking for project ideas.
We have oodles of music players on Linux, GUI and terminal. But we have very few choices that
* are optimized for the absurdly, comically large library of someone who has been diligently collecting and organizing music for decades
* collect playback statistics and allow user rating of songs
* that can be used to create smart playlists
I used amarok for years, but it keeps dying and reviving, and I don't trust it to stick around. I then used mpd for years, but while mpd excels at large libraries, the other two requirements have to be implemented client-side, and the experience was always at least a little janky. I currently use Strawberry, but 1) it chugs with a large library, 2) its smart playlists aren't expressive enough, and 3) it is also kind of janky, and I experience frequent crashes.
The only player I've found that really fits my use-case like a glove is MediaMonkey, but I walked away from Microsoft years ago, and I'm not about to go back now just to wrangle my music library.
Those who love this conceptually but have/had cloud music, did you act? How/why?

As for your other two suggestions those fall outside the scope of kew. kew is supposed to be simple with minimal bloat.
I love the readme, and I wish that every project had one this great. And it player looks awesome as well!

Nice, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Currently, I use navidrome[1], which not really is a player but more a music server, but since it supports the "subsonic" protocol, you can use native apps to connect and manage your stuff (substreamer for android / iOS is all I really need but navidrome also comes with a handy web interface). It also has support for json based smart playlists[2]. 1: https://www.navidrome.org/…
For an android client I use tempo[1] which again was one I landed on because pretty much all the other clients didn't support folder lookup either (I think dsub also does but tempo is a lot prettier).
