Navidrome-first Android client that prioritizes smooth playback over feature bloat.
Self-hosting enthusiasts and audiophiles using Navidrome

So a couple of months ago I started building Kumanote, and today I feel that it is ready for self hosting music listeners out there!
The philosophy of the app will always revolve around these tree things:
* Smooth and efficient. Your device should feel cold to the touch when using the app, both in foreground and background. All while your device never skips a frame.
* The music and user experience is incredibly important. You'll notice this when trying Kumanote out.
* Do less, and do those things well. Kumanote will never try to please everyone out there. That's how other apps became "do it all" music listening apps.
I hope you'll give Kumanote a try! I'm certain that you'd love it. If not, I'd like to hear about it in the comments.
Thank you!
The project wires together a nice set of desktop integrations — MPRIS for system controls, Discord RPC, local scanning and Jellyfin playback — all presented in a Dioxus-based UI. It's not reinventing music players, but it's a tidy Rust native client with useful integrations and Flatpak packaging notes; polish and broader differentiation are what's missing.
Full YouTube Music TUI with vim keys, offline cache, Discord integration—terminal audiophiles' dream.
Rockbox engine as a server daemon with AirPlay and Snapcast multi-room sync built in.
Yet another terminal music player competing with cmus and ncmpcpp.
1.6MB native player is tiny, but Music.app and VLC already handle local files.
Learning project in a crowded space — ncmpcpp and cmus already exist.
