Jellyfin * not plex, as far as I know
so it's an electron web app you could instead of in-browser web ui?
- There’s a web app in addition to the electron desktop apps, you can find an example here: https://feishin.vercel.app/
Those aren't Spotify screenshots? I am very impressed.
- Thing is, Spotify's UI is one of the worst thing about Spotify..it's full of anti patterns, and the most simple things are always a Todd up.
  
  Oh for sure, the UX is horrible, but I find the UI quite pretty. Could definitely use better playlist managegement, this could be the same interface more geared towards music managing.
Usecase to the native Jellyfin web UI besides being pretty?
- Hey being pretty is a valuable thing! I'm a pretty function over form guy myself but a more beautiful thing makes me want to use it more.
  Heck I open krita sometimes because its a pretty app, and play with just a little
  
  Sure. No problem with a prettier interface.
  It's just that I like to know what sets it apart from the main offering and depending on the features I might prioritize it ;)
- That sounds useful. One of my greater issues with listeningon my server.
I really wish it did not look like Spotify if I'm being honest.
Also, I think it's missing a button to shuffle a playlist? Instead of starting it from the first song. It's predecessor SonicXD had it, but it's missing here.
This looks badass. I do wish there were better mobile apps for a lot of these media servers. I’ve been mostly sticking to Plexamp for now cause of it.
- There are some great ones. Check out Tempo and Symfonium
  
  Symfonium is great, it supports a bunch of sources and works really well. Absolutely worth supporting the dev (check his ko-fi too)!
  
  I am very picky with my music player apps,b but symfonium is crazy good. And still get new features. Give it a try :)
  
  I don’t have an Android but thanks for the links regardless.
My client of choice! Nice!
Anyone with Navidrome should consider trying this. It provides a means to create & modify the smart playlists graphically & makes it easier to rate songs with stars vs the web UI
Great app, but no flatpak. Only appimage and the last update was last november.
Windowsize is always reset to a small window, on windows and Linux. Hope it will get an update soon
- I will check out Supersonic. Thanks ☺️
