5·4 days agoI agree but it is a complaint I’ve read multiple times.
I don’t think wanting people to suffer is a great goal but to each their own.
To be fair, building the binary is the same regardless of OS. The creator just decided to send the windows and Mac binaries off to a third party server and then paywall access. You can see this in the build.yml of the original repo.
Personally I like it because it makes managing my music library really easy. Especially when it comes to keeping everything organized in a way my Plex server likes as well.
It really depends on the individual. Some people really hate the outdated looking UI and don’t have much use for the audiophile features.
Crazy people love to sprinkle in anti semitism in their rants.
0·11 days agoLike I said, maybe it worth it to you. Some people commenting like a distress pin is some sort of pancea.
That is highly dependant on the country you do it in.
People, if you are taken into custody and are forced to unlock the phone and you wipe the phone instead, you are living in a fantasy world if you think you can’t get in trouble for that.
Maybe that’s worth it but let’s not kid ourselves that there wouldn’t be consequences.
Remember plausible deniability is a social concept not a legal one. It might of helped you get out of being grounded but it won’t save you from jail time.
I was wondering when that repo showed up and all of a sudden there were 50k downloads of the windows version if this might happen.
The coderberg fork was linked directly to the main strawberry page where the source code is and it’s pretty obvious the downloads were just the same as any subscriber executables.
I highly doubt the story that the person behind the fork was given binaries for testing. My guess is it was just a subscriber sharing their downloaded executables.
The whole malware argument the creator made is fear mongering.
Its odd he charges $7/month for subscribers on Patreon but its only $5 if you pay via Kofi.
I don’t think so. There is a thread on the official forums about it from 2023 which indicates it can only read replay gain tags from third party software.
