Would be funny if Winamp gets a second life ~20 later.

I would love Winamp on Linux. I just switched off Windows this year and I haven't been able to find a media player I liked yet. I haven't tried qmmp though.

I want that winamp, as an android app, that doesn't spy or send data to 3rd parties. Look how llama whipping it is!

Audacious can even theme itself using Winamp themes!

It was honestly the one thing I still have never found a feature parity Linux alt for after years; it will always bug me no matter what other "it's basically the same" suggested player I use instead.

That said, currently I'm making do with Quodlibet, and I have no major complaints. But nothing is an exact replica enough for me not to constantly compare it to Wimamp & complain.
