The project is cool, the demo song is iconically AI not great, sorry.
I hope they included the llama whipping.

#42Looks great and bring backs a lot of memories... I had to go back to https://skins.webamp.org/ for a nostalgia shot.
I wish music had not move to stream, I think I appreciated each song much more when listening did not feel like such an ephemeral experience.

#43Should have called it clamp
Ha! Huge missed opportunity :-)
There may not be many like me, but I sure as hell appreciate a clever name. A great name is extremely hard, but figuring one out can make or break a project.

#44As someone who is fond of Windows music players and futuristically designed DIN stereos of the early-to-mid 2000s, the variety of console visualizations is wicked cool and very much welcome! This is easily the best feature of cliamp. I'd love the collection of visualizations as a separate program, akin to cava[1], that listens and responds to your default audio sink. I already use a Raspberry Pi for music while drivi…
Looks like the telemetry was removed:

You now have my full support. Thank you!

#45This is cool! I wanted to make a basic CRUD form to update meta data and was considering go, lots of neat libraries to take a look at.
Interesting that it uses charmbracelet libraries to create the terminal components. I often have a hard time understanding how to use charmbracelet effectively, for minor TUI things I prefer tview more.
Anyone know any good tutorials/blog posts about building something complicated with bubble tea? I feel like the charmbracel docs are way too "happy path" if that makes sense?

#46Of course for the terminal. GUIs never developed, as we still live in the 1970s.
Re: A retro terminal music player inspired by Winamp
#47Winamp was pretty cool. When I switched to Linux, many years ago, I wanted to have winamp too. I think I used bmp for a while until it died; before that xmms but that one also sort of died. Meanwhile some other GUI showed up, I forgot the name. I kind of gave up on winamp, mostly because my use cases shifted. I went to mplayer, then mpv, and now I am too used to using mpv for literally anything related to audio and v…
There are countless good audio players now.
I am using Amberol, it looks just amazing in a modern desktop and plays my FLAC collection.
About using the command line... I just type open musicfile.flac and it works. Opening another file adds it to the reproduction queue.

#48This is great, all I wanted from music player!
I've used cmus last few years but it has some warts and UX downsides.

#49Earlier quoted context omitted.
OIC: https://github.com/bjarneo/cliamp/blob/main/telemetry/teleme... Should be easy to nerf, but the build instructions are kinda vague. Clone, and then what? Something like "go build" or something I guess. Looks cool though
I saw it, it is NOT spyware. It just sends a random UUID. It is just a personal disappointment for the fact that it is something so simple as a console player and yet connects somewhere. But that's just me. I grew up in other times. Also I just compiled mp3blaster and I am listening to it again. So cool!
If it phones home without explicitly asking the user for permission in advance, it's spyware.
