OP: are you the author?

I'm curious if this is based on the released source (with some drama https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41861056), or a black-box reimplementation.

Looks really great either way!

Hey, author here.

Totally black-box reimplementation. For the visualizer I took a brief look at the old source code for Geiss though.

I've been using foobar2000 and it's pretty good for my needs (no Linux though)
Anybody wanting a real Winamp successor should use AIMP. Besides being very mature and full of features it also supports Winamp DSP plugins.
Godot surely is an interesting choice for application development.
How many hundreds of megabytes?
0.94 hundred megabytes, apparently.
I'm sure Winamp could run on a 20 MB stripped down Win95 in a VM. So I expect that Winamp + Win95 + a simple VM is smaller.

I wonder if Winamp 2.9 + Wine is smaller...
