KDE connect was an absolute divine discovery when i ran across it!
SidewaysHighways
oh lawd i am glad to meet another out in the wild!
i was fortunate to start with residential alarm and A/V. due to a talent vacuum, leapfrogged to control system programmer/service, which allowed a few forks in the road (service manager, project manager and sales,) before bringing me back to my primary passion in this industry, AV programming and design.
but yeah I've installed my fair share of alarm panels, access control, thousands of camera systems.
but most of my shit has been fixing old rich people's wifi and kids/grandkids AV
holy shit this is the kind of stuff that piques my interest! Flawless location hopping eh? is this descended from the old Logitech platform? will CERTAINLY look into this
people speak highly of this one. I'll have to do a little research
when i first saw and played with music assistant i was absolutely amazed for a bit. the ability to sling tunes to any device that can be seen on the network with all metadata available on a home assistant (adjacent) dashboard? sign me up! i was thrilled at the audiobook/podcast support as well. able to tie in tidal and local music with announcement capabilities.. just awesome!
i can't remember the exact reason why but it didn't quite work perfectly for me, as far as "checking all the boxes"
the companion app wasn't quite designed to be a music source and would stop playing if screen was locked for a few seconds? on webpage it is like, constantly spamming KDE connect to continue playing, even when sending to another device.
i am following music assistant for sure though!
slsk and nicotine+ have been so cool for so long!
i feel bad when im likely destroying someone's uploads because i found a hidden treasure of FLACs from some older or obscure artists
ooolala i didn't think about a gauntlet to the death!
old school. tried and true. network agnostic. love it!
pixel7a gOS gang rise up!
gonic looks cool! i am investigating more!
that was a big choke point for me for a while also!
