Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

    Need proper replacements for:

    • AirPlay/Sonos (SendSpin has made a huge splash in recent months)
    • Easy wireless display sharing to TVs à la AirPlay mirroring and Windows Cast

      PipeWire supports AirPlay…?

      At least with PipeWire 1.4.9, I regularly cast audio to my wife’s Apple Homepod

        True but I want a fully open source stack to replace it. Sendspin is looking really good so far

          Ah. Open source would be better, but I don’t think AirPlay support is stopping anyone from using Linux.

          I’m not sure about Sonos
