It looks very underwhelming. Do Linux Desktop Devs ever actually managed a collection/playlists or even listen to music on their machines?

In case you didn't know, nowadays GNOME goes for maximum simplicity.

Which is kind of ironic given that the gnome desktop has a bit of a learning curve.

[-] GolfNovemberUniform@infosec.pub 1 points 2 months ago

Well many people consider MacOS easy to use but it still has a learning curve if you're coming from Windows. Same goes to GNOME. It's not a Windows or MacOS clone so it does need some figuring out.

True but the overview and gestures are kind of contradictory to the rest of the design which keeps things as simple as possible.

Contradictory? Hmm I really think otherwise. But I'm a real GNOME shill so I guess I'm not the kind of person to discuss it properly.

Decibels seems to be an audio player to playback individual files, like maybe a voice memo or single music track. I personally use Gapless when I want to play music with shuffle and playlists.
