I’m not aware on how the program is developed and what are the plans for the future, but can we start a Linux migration paid campaign ? I would like to support it!
I managed to run it on Linux using bottles with dotnet48 and allfonts based on this discussion.
Honestly, although desired, it seems not worth the huge effort considering the existing quite well working workarounds:
I believe it would be important, if the objective is to be the best opensource player, leaving windows dependencies seems to be the path to follow.
I don’t know how Matej sees this, but if that’s the objective, I’m sure the project will get a lot of support.
Right now I’m testing the options to run it on Linux, the most viable one is using the VM, seeing a lot of problems with the interface while trying to emulate it with wine and also some suddenly crashes.
That would be very hard and time-consuming to do. That is why I would not like (do not have time) to start down this path at the moment.

Good to hear from you Matej, have you ever planned to increase the development team? Im not a programmer, but I would not mind to support the project with a monthly support plan.
I did think about it, and help would be very welcome. But until now I did not really try hard to increase the team.
