Zorin OS has a lite version, you could test that and see if it works. Besides, it’s one of the best distros for people used to Windows so it wouldn’t require much work to help people to figure out how to use it.

Video player? Absolutely. However, it leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to music. I use Strawberry for music, personally, as I like the added metadata features it offers.

Looks great! I’ve been rocking Strawberry for a little while now since I decided to finally retire Winamp, but this looks like it might be better in terms of the UI!

It will be if digital ID rolls out with CBDCs.

That’s odd, did you go to an artist’s page directly? I just listen to full albums rather than creating a queue so maybe that’s why I didn’t encounter the issue you’re describing.

Try RiMusic on F-Droid. FOSS front-end to YT Music, like having Premium without a subscription. Aside from some crashing and offline downloads issues, it’s great.

Yep. I used Winamp (and still do to an extent) but wanted to find a FOSS alternative that I can start slowly leaning into so it’s painless when I migrate to Linux next year. So far, Strawberry is the only one I’ve found that I enjoy using on a daily basis.

Rhythmbox and Strawberry are the best, IMO. Rhythmbox has a lower impact on system resources but Strawberry is ideal for people with extensive music collections that you store offline like I do.
