    I don’t know what this strawberry music player is, but I approve of the fact that I can install it right from the fedora repos in one click but windows users have to build it from source from an unofficial repo on girhub. All programs should be distributed this way to make windows users suffer.

      I don’t think wanting people to suffer is a great goal but to each their own.

      To be fair, building the binary is the same regardless of OS. The creator just decided to send the windows and Mac binaries off to a third party server and then paywall access. You can see this in the build.yml of the original repo.
