Ubuntu. Back when win 10 was announced and all the bullshit started.
But unity was definitely not my thing, and I tried a handful of other distros on my dad's old computer. I figured if I could get a decent functionality on that, I'd be able to comfortably use whatever I settled on for a decent box.
Mint with cinnamon is where I settled. Cinnamon or plasma are perfect for my wants, and mint being debian related makes software damn easy to get going fast. What's not to like about that? I tried it with dual boot on my gaming box at the time, and then when I set up a newer box, I went straight mint. Now, the old one is my air gapped media machine running win7 because fuck life without musicbee.
Everything else is on mint except my kid's gaming laptop (which is an oxymoron imo, but whatever) because they're unwilling to try anything else, and my dad's current but ancient box running 11 and being nearly useless because of that. But he's damn near 80, so he can do whatever he wants short of shitting on the dinner table.
I have been searching soo long to get musicbee working on Linux and I think some ppl may have had a bit of luck with wine shinnanigans but other then that I can't see it happening :(
Yeah, I had hoped with proton and whatnot, it would be a solved thing. Hell, it may be, but I'm fine using what I've got until it dies, so I only check about once a year.
have you looked into using any alternative Linux native mp3 players? I used musicbee for a bit when I was on windows but I didnt find anything too unique about it.
