If you haven’t heard yet, in big 2026 we’re all ditching Microslop for systems that actually respect you, and we’re also breaking up with our ever-pricier Spotify subscriptions in exchange for actual ownership of the media we consume. So, for Fun February, I thought I’d take a look at some of the apps we can use to fill the Spotify-shaped void.

audacious deserves a shoutout which is missing from this list; it's basically foobar for linux with some additional features like system tray mode, winamp skin , and drag and drop folder generation (although it still works if you make a new playlist tab)

I like Audacious but for the life of me either because I'm too stupid or too lazy but on NixOS I can't get winamp skins to work.
