Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

Symfonium. There are plenty of music apps, and I've used a lot of them, but none combine the UX and functionality that Symfonium offers to anywhere near the same quality :/

You know? Doesn't look like it's quite there, but it's the closest I've seen by far, I'll have a good look I think! Thanks for that!

Edit: Tempo has Podcasts, Symfonium does not. Time will tell, but that may be the feature that pushes me over the edge.

yea considering its FOSS it was good enough compared to a lot of the other clients for me to move away from Symfonium

I was so pissed the other day while pulling out of the driveway that my paid copy of Symfonium wouldn't work at all. It needed permission from daddy google to start but didn't have an internet connection at the moment. Fuck that shit I gave you my money!

Synfonium is the only thing that I could get to work with my selfs hosted jellyfin server and with downloading of music. I haven't had any problems with it though.
