CLUSTER MUSIC-PLAYER-TERMINAL-2 · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-10-03

Terminal music streamers

This cluster consists of terminal-based music players that stream audio from personal media servers (Subsonic, Navidrome, Jellyfin) or specific services like QQ Music, with some supporting local file playback. Dated entries span from 2020-10 through 2026-07, peaking at 2 entries in 2026-07, though the monthly counts are sparse and uneven. The top traction signals are ratune-bin, qqmusic-tui-bin, and koan, each at 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 13 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
