I was in your position a few years back. I missed MediaMonkey when shifting to Linux.

I found Tauon media player was a pretty solid replacement for playing local and network files, but ultimately settled on running Navidrome server and Feishin as a desktop client. I haven’t looked back.

For organising your collection, I’d look at using either Musicbrainz Picard (GUI based) or Beets (CLI, and it’s a little complicated at first). I generally use Beets with Musicbrainz database, and the Discog plugin for anything not found by MB.

I haven’t found anything that is a complete package like MediaMonkey, but with a bit of effort and once the parts are set up, it’s so much better.

Thanks. I think I looked at doing that when setting it up, and it was more expensive in terms of API calls. With a cloud vendor you have to be careful of that, so I opted for the SIZE command.

I used this recently to help a friend with some tech stuff. The docker images were simple to bring up and within minutes we were connected. It freaked him out how easily I could get on and control his PC. I was impressed by the whole experience.

You may have seen this already, but on the GloriousEggroll Github it mentions not having V-sync set to “Auto”

Is this only with Warframe? Do you use X11? If so, could it be defaulting to a lower Hz second monitor or something? I suffered with this for years until I swapped to Wayland. Just a thought.

If you’re looking for original Ska from the 50’s/60’s, this about the best album going. It includes a song from the then relatively unknown “Robert Marley” :) Also, lots of trumpets.

Rclone. Not because it’s a complicated tool, but because I would like a history of my file transfers and a few graphs to show we what speeds, files sizes and whether the transfer succeeded. At the moment in order to confirm my home backups have succeeded, I have to run a separate size comparisons between my different datastores.
