@newt @alyx @ivesen all you need, really

@newt @alyx @ivesen ncmpcpp sucks, DeaDBeeF i would have used if they had full feature parity with f2k, but last i checked (years ago) there was an unfixed issue, and i havent bothered retrying because i replaced my tagging with https://beets.io/

so now everything's just commandline purely, mpd's very stable for opus playback

@opal @alyx @ivesen @newt beets looks very cool

i use audacious and/or quod libet and manually do my tagging with ex false.

@icedquinn @alyx @ivesen @newt i avoided musicbrainz for a while because i didnt like the concept of autotagging, but looking at their tag policies, it's grown on me and i contribute there now

@opal @ivesen @icedquinn @newt
I personally have trust issues with anything that claims it can autotag. I have too many house/techno remixes that won't be found in any database and are likely to be butchered, and for other stuff, I often have certain criteria I use to manage songs easier.

@alyx @ivesen @icedquinn @newt mate i listen to the most autistic shit believe me https://musicbrainz.org/user/wowaname/edits

@opal @ivesen @icedquinn @newt
Me too. But when some of these things are just a DJ live session recording, they don't really have proper titles.

@alyx @ivesen @icedquinn @newt i mostly just have albums in my library, and the rest i pretty much keep unsorted

@opal @ivesen @icedquinn @newt
I've been a good boy with anything new I add, and keep them well sorted, tagged, replay-gained, album cover-ed, etc. But some of the old stuff is not necessarily in the best condition, and it's those that are harder to get right, cause they're either individual songs from weird sources, or unofficial TOP 20 from random radio station.
