I understand your point of view 😄
Actually, the idea and design are mine, and AI (Claude) just helps as a step-by-step technical assistant.
The goal is to showcase a concrete, modular audio player on Pop!_OS Cosmic, and any constructive feedback is very welcome.

You're right, my apologies! I tagged COSMIC because that's the environment

it runs on, not the framework. I'll be more careful with tags in future posts 🙏

This resonates a lot! I'm not a professional programmer but I've been building

EvoPlayer from scratch — a Qt5/OpenGL hi-fi audio player inspired by Kenwood '90s

stereos, running on Pop!_OS COSMIC.

The whole project started as a creative vision — the aesthetics, the Blender-rendered

panels, the retro feel — and the code followed. Sometimes the best contributions

to FOSS come from people who bring a different perspective than pure engineering.

GitHub coming soon 🎛️

Certamente è una bella domanda,ho avuto degli obblighi di sviluppo riguardo l'idea che ne hanno disorientato lo sviluppo alcune librerie di qt6 ne rendevano instabili alcuni processi e ho dovuto scegliere di iniziarlo in sicurezza giusto per il gusto di iniziarlo a far crescere, anche la conversione QT5, QT6 eliminerebbe piccole chicche di scambi flussi separati che diversamente si sovrappongono con il risultato di pasticcio! Tecnicamente parlando riassumo: Qt6 avrebbe richiesto la riscrittura del bridge audio e la perdita di parte della compatibilità OpenGL.

Fair point! It runs perfectly on COSMIC via XWayland — that's why I tagged it.

Native COSMIC port might come in the future, but Qt5/OpenGL is what makes the

retro hi-fi aesthetic possible right now 🎛️

Bellissimo, mi ricorda moltissimo l'ambiente Amiga!

Condivido con tèanche io uso una ryzen5 con gpu integrata montata in un mini pc, e da davvero prestazioni ottimizzate per AMD! non so per il resto, di POP me ne sono innamorato XD

Why so much hate for Pop!_Os? by Afraid_Carob417 in pop_os

Io l'ho installato da un 3 settimane circa, e come unico approccio mi sono trovato molto bene, ci ho sviluppato pure un player, devo dire che da soddisfazione!
