Funny, I was JUST looking for a Foobar-like equivalent for MacOS. I'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.

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

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

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.
