There are some really nice music players out there but most of them work in this kind of tree way where they show you a small image of the album, and below all of the songs, or worst, directly show you all of the songs. I generally browse by looking at album covers and there I decide what to listen, so being able to look at the covers is something I really need. So far I’ve been using Elisa, which is the one who works the best for me, but then it got bugged so I switched to Lollypop, but I don’t like the GUI as much since it is a bit messy.

Basically, something more like this:

Instead of something like this:

I’ve tried Resonance and I really like it, but it seems really alpha and with not much active development for being a relatively new project.

    Hey, honestly, yeah, it has all of this and it looks good. Sadly it is Electron, which sucks since there’s a Windows version that uses C+. I think I’m still going to use this since it seems the best option.

      Agreed. I’m using the native Windows version, written in C#. The developer stopped updating it because he switched to a cross-platform version. I take his point, as not everyone has experience with the technologies that are available on all systems. Electron is the solution. However, even the older version has all the features I need and an awesome UI/UX!

      I would recommend Sayonara Player for Linux. It’s not as awesome as Dopamine, but I still love it. I couldn’t find anything better for Linux!
