Enshittification strikes again
New Sonos app dropped, and it wrecked my system. I can no longer search my local music library, stored on a file share. I only have 1800 albums, so it's not like that's a big deal. If I needed to change a setting on my local library, I'm out of luck - those settings are no longer available. Gone is last.fm scrobbling, queue editing, alarms, sleep timers, and the ability to connect to Subsonic servers. I'm sure there's a large list of missing features that I'm not aware of.

The release notes were not useful. Support was not useful. "We're
not sure if or when those features are being added back."
I guess it's time to start seeing what else is out there...
