i really don't like this change, it honestly feels like they're intentionally screwing us over for using windows (even though i use both windows and linux, it still feels like they are dogpiling on all of us)
i just hope they lift it soon.

@jonas You cry for no contributions but then you make a year/monthly suscription. WTF? Put a mandatory single payment, man!!

Fellas there are multiple repos out there offerings the macos and windows versions for free. It is also relatively simple to copy the repo and use github to build them yourself if you so choose. There is no need to be rude to jonas.

@jonas I was using Libre.fm during the no registrations period and the site was still usable and everything worked, it was really slow during that time period but got much much better when registrations were opened back up, I would love to see Libre.fm support brought back as well

@musicamaster For the avoidance of doubt, are your audio files indexed as part of a collection, or are they simply in directories? They need to be part of a collection in order to be included in the DB structure. That DB is where many different fields are added, such as the play count.

Another super happy user here, taking advantage these days of "Song fingerprinting and tracking"; and remembering the days when that feature didn't exist and how the internal playlists got ruined after renaming files or directories. This is so good... Thank you!

Long live Strawberry!

@paul2berry
That seems wrong, I'll fix it now.

@jonas User name is mrrjhrpc@gmail.com.

@econnolly That helped. I was fighting with all the "!=" and the suggestions in the pop-up tip, but actually they don't always work. e.g. "year:!=2" didnt work to filter out year 2xxx where "year:-2" does. I hadn't even thought to use the "-" minus sign, but it turns out to be far superior. Also the $ does nothing as far as I can tell there are no wild cards.

"genre:rock -hard -indie -pop -art comment:-amazon year:-20"

basically gives me all the "rock" genre with any "hard rock", "indie rock", "pop rock", and "art rock" filtered out, while also filtering out anything with "amazon" in the comment and sticking to 19xx for the year.

@jonas Yes I use the last played time (oldest first), fwiw the actual search criteria is here https://imgur.com/a/M5AbzAR (far too complicated!) as I wrote when it skips in the albums I'm thinking of all the tracks satisfy those criteria and on the next edit page are shown sequentially just when they appear on the playlist due to dynamic mode being set, some tracks get skipped.

This drives me crazy. There are solutions to this. Why hasn't anyone contacted this guy? I can use the Qobuz tokens his program generates, but the Tidal ones don't work; however, he may be able provide guidance on that.
