📝 I made a music app #Development#Macos#Ios#Music#Navidrome

I've been using Navidrome to stream music for a bit now. It's lightweight, snappy, stable and does everything I need.

Good morning townies and Fediverse citizens - if you use Linux, or any OS that has a good shell, do you pipe commands a lot? And if so, what are commonly used ones?

Last month Apple previewed a bunch of new features coming to Spotlight that could make third-party apps like Raycast less useful on Macs. So maybe it's not surprising that Raycast has launched a new beta for Windows. https://www.notebookcheck.net/One-of-the-best-productivity-tools-for-macOS-now-comes-to-Windows-11.1045410.0.html#Raycast#Launcher#RaycastForWindows#macOS#Spotlight
