    Winamp nostalgics might want to try Qmmp, which inherited the old Winamp spirit (small, fast, bloat-less). Runs on Linux, BSD, Haiku, Windows, and possibly MacOS as well. https://qmmp.ylsoftware.com/.

    With NoScript[1][2], the page works but it's a typical thin content, new age marketing gibberish with little value. There however are links to forums[3] and stable version download[4] and a nice picture of a llama[5].

    Most of the comments are about the UX, on which I have no comment. On Winamp, though, I thought this was a nostalgia piece! Hear, hear. My pandemic project was digitizing all the vinyl records I still wanted to listen to, and then selling them on Discogs [1]. I combined those with my CDs, and put it all on a 256GB microSD card for my phone! Even using FLAC instead of MP3, it's plenty of space. Shuffle randomly and listen in the car. It's better than any radio station, and no subscription fees or commercials. It's easy to find an Android app that just does this, which is basically the same thing Winamp did back in the day. It's hard AF to find an app for the Mac that <i>just</i> does this. They all have zillions of <i>other</i> features that get in the way. And no, VLC does not JUST do this; it does a million other things that obscure simple play-my-music functionality. I settled on Elmedia, which is sorta tolerable.
