Some time ago I was looking for a Linux music player

Hello from Harmonoid | Harmonoid

Well, I have to say that Harmonoid is the best one I've found, it has a ton of cool features, it works and it allows you to be able to see your collection by album and it doesn't use Electron. Right now its development has stalled a bit but it's still pretty much in good shape, though.

Have you tried Strawberry? It's the best one out there, imo.

I want to like Strawberry as a way to connect to Subsonic server on Linux, but it's just so clunky. I hate list view, as well as the theme..

Have you tried Sublime Music (GTK)? I used other (Electron) alternatives but Electron sucks, Sublime Music feels pretty fast.

I have and it's great but I use KDE so I prefer a QT-based player

Yep, and that is why Cantata is still the best music player for the QT environment.

Sadly development stopped over a year ago. Strawberry is still very active though.

Yes, well developed stopped years ago. Maintainers hip stopped a year ago. Still the best however and I will use until it breaks!

Need to make the switch, still using clementine, I like the Visualizations Clementine has that are missing in Strawberry.

For Viz I like projectM (clone of the old MilkDrop), available through Steam.
