    What is the point of “showing” something that isn’t actually yours? And if it’s not gonna be maintained? I don’t mind vibe coded stuff, but why do you need to promote it as something you made? You didn’t and you don’t care. You only care about attention. My god. The HN main page is becoming infested with shit like this.

      I have been working on this for a long, long time, AI has definitely helped me with some things and code polish and review, etc and I asked it to replace my less professional comments with more formal ones for open source release. That&#x27;s the full disclosure.<p>But I am a Swift programmer, and I have worked really hard on this. This app was not just vibecoded or done in an afternoon or something. And it will continue to receive updates because it is and has been my passion project for a long time now, from morning to night.

    Local library playback has always been a challenge when the size is in tens of thousands. But after that the main challenge is headless networked playback from separate subnets - e.g. one great stereo system controlled by multiple members of the household from multiple devices

      Genuine question, are there open source solutions to this? I use HomePods so audio can be controlled from any device and any rooms audio can be synced to another. Would love something more open.

    Funny, I was JUST looking for a Foobar-like equivalent for MacOS. I&#x27;ll have to try this out later. I use Roon for daily use at home, but having a network-free local player that supports everything I play at native bit and sample rate is a huge plus.

      By the way, what can you tell about Roon as an active user? It costs as much as Qobuz, but it’s your responsibility to fill up your library and provide infrastructure - which is weird. Sure, it sponsors musicbrainz and lastfm for metadata and puts some nice UI, gets buddies in HiFi manufacturers, but what else?..<p>I’m very surprised that Roon does UNPnP for own port, potentially exposing home network through some zerodays. For that money it has to do reverse tunneling or something like that.

      Why not Foobar itself?

    Why can’t people even write their own product descriptions without AI anymore???

    Looks good. Claude Code or Codex?
