  1. BOO.

    Article on how to run #WinAmp on #Linux and I went "wheee!!"... but the whole thing was "run it in WinE"*.

    This does NOT whip the llama's ass.

  2. Do you guys still listen to music files locally on your PC? If so, what player do you use? Feel free to comment on which file formats you play and whether you adjust the sound to your liking using an equalizer.

  3. Gizmodo: Can Winamp Ride the Retro Tech Wave All the Way Onto Spotify’s Private Beach?. “This week brought the news that Winamp—remember Winamp?—is planning to relaunch next year as a sort of one-player-for-everything app, with an integrated streaming service provided by French company Deezer along with the capability to play music from ‘users’ local music libraries, internet radio […]

  4. Is anyone crazy enough to develop #Winamp plugins in 2026? Yes—me.
    Together with a friend, I built BookAmp, a plugin that should appeal to anyone who listens to content that needs to be sped up or made easier on the ears.
    You can adjust playback speed, pitch, or both at the same time. It also includes a multi-stage limiter with adjustable settings, plus filters that improve clarity. Fans of the classic radio sound will probably notice a few similarities to some of the biggest players on the market. ;)
    BookAmp is open source and available here:

  8. Remember the hypnotic psychedlic #visualization from the #Milkdrop plugin in #Winamp?

    I wasted enough time trying & failing to get modern equivalent Project-M to work on Linux.

    But thanks to the #InternetArchive I don't even need to: I can just play some files in Webamp & it comes with Milkdrop! (although I haven't worked out how to make it fullscreen yet EDIT: right-click on Milkdrop > Fullscreen))

    Plus you can try different skins, like this sweeeeet #Jaws one! 😆

  9. shout out to the many nerds who worked diligently to ensure that each of their anime and TV crushes had their own #winamp skin

  10. Anyone know a #linux music player that let's you use a #winamp skin AND also scale it to make it appear bigger on high-resolution modern screens? Like just a simple 2x, 3x or 4x pixel scaling would be good.

    #Audacious includes a winamp mode, but it appear tiny on a high resolution screen and I haven't found a way to upscale it.

    Edit: CTRL+D lets you double-size audacious, which looks great. This was apparently the kind of question I had to ask the whole internet before looking it up myself.

  11. bwahahaha just installed #CLIAMP and within the first 3 seconds of launch, it’s already my favorite music player. Respectable nod to #winamp #music #selfhosted
