From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This looks promising. I always yearned for Foobar2000 to be on Linux natively.
However layout editor part is quite confusing (adding widgets seem to add them not where I want them at), and I couldn't get it to play any music, as both drag and drop to a playlist and open file option in the menu causes the program to crash. Plugins didn't load at all until I manually copied them to the places fooyin was looking for, though I wonder if this is an AUR package issue or not.
I'll keep using DeaDBeeF despite some complaints I have with it for the time being, and will keep a close eye on this one.
Lollypop is better.
11 commits, 1 branch, no README.
Lollypop is a very simple player. What are you supposed to change when it reaches stable state and there are no new major GTK versions?
Just highlighting how simple of a player it must be to reach a stable state so quickly.
