A FOSS Music app that's as good as Musicolet. I got too used to its queue system that now I can't use any other music app that does it the more "traditional" way. Also multi-select, menus, options and search are just too well done in this app. Literally the best IMO.

The fact that it does so much and is still ad-free and mostly donation-based (iirc) also always makes me reconsider if going full-FOSS is actually worth it at all. It just feels like it was built with so much care... Similar to other non-FOSS apps I used to use.

I guess not everything that's proprietary sucks

Ever tried emby? Hits in the good spot. it's the open-source alternative to spotify. understandably some features of their google play app are subscription only. It isn't cheap maintaining apps in the commercial eco-system.

Much better to recommend Jellyfin instead of Emby.

Navidrome is also an excellent music server that's very fast and lightweight with great support from multiple mobile apps
