Does it run on Linux?
unfortunately i’m pretty sure the answer to that is no for both old and new winamp.

well yeah i’d imagine it can essentially be emulated (i don’t use linux, but my understanding is that for at least the popular distributions there is relatively little headache in doing that), but i think the person was asking if there was a native version for linux

I just thought that if somebody bothered to maintain this program for all this time they might as well have open sourced it and then somebody might port it to Linux. Although we’ve still got xmms
And you are right wine is not an emulator by name, although I wonder really how it’s not technically an emulator. I think by “not an emulator” they meant something like, it’s not a virtual machine (back then, emulators were known for emulating a CPU and/or hardware for the software to run on). Wine is like Windows binary compatibility here it provides Windows system calls and libraries to the program in order for it to run.

I like new Nokia phones
@alyaza It feels strange to me that #WinAmp would dump #WindowsXP compatibility
W7 is the new XP

Winamp, it really whips the llama’s ass!
@alyaza I was just mentioning the other day that WinAmp was the best music player ever, and I missed it “It really kicks the llamas ass.”
also lol, i just realized they’re doing NFTs and their actual website is astronomically slow.
