I’m sure Rhythmbox works well for you and that is great. But I also need some niche features which might not be in it.

Mostly conversion and forensic thing.
ape tak tta format, bit compare, audio checksum, mass-tag/batch-tag, replaygain, custom playlist columns, statistic driven field. Don’t know what else until I try and find it’s missing.

After a quick look, DeaDBeeF might have most of what I want.

There is a trend line of the amount of shit you need to do to stop windows from doing things you don’t want.

I’d love myself a hole to go in right now

maybe I should have use wojak :|

I mean… if your room have a lot of stuff then it might take a while to find the source, if you aren’t being pranked. But random screws on your desk will never be as horrifying as random maggots on your desk.
