The fugliest of all interfaces because. The icons are older than windows xp - just like the entire layout which feels even older Missing essential functions you'd expect from any music player.

Effectively abandoned. The latest release on the official website is nearing its 10th birthday, and incompatible with most modern systems. Current releases exist on GitHub, but I couldn't find any compatible with MacOS and it seems even a successful install would lack the features and support anyone reading this probably wants. I have a lot of respect for what Clementine was and would love to see a huge comeback, but unfortunately, I don't think it is anywhere close to usable for most people.

Comments and Reviews
I like Clementine because it has a great interface with which you easily get along with :) Although i only use it for the mp3s stocked on my computer, you can pair it with Soundcloud, Spotify and such other online music services, podcast websites or even online storage websites such as Dropbox and Google Drive. It's great for creating playlists that mixes music from artists only available to you on specific platforms!
One button i use very often since i installed Clementine is the "Stop playing after this track" button. You can also queue tracks so that, within a playlist, you can create your little temporary playlist for this particular session. It's great. Talking of playlists, it does a great job at letting you create any playlist you want, name it, export it, import it. Anf if you're too lazy to create your own, the music player has dynamic ones already created for you.
It also satisfies my collector's desperate need for tags and classification in my music librairy, as this music player allows you to quickly order your collection by any information available. It even has a tag editor integrated, which is quite simple to use.
On top of that, Clementine offers many other tools you might need the use at some point such as, trippy track visualizations, rain sounds, imported lyrics, author, album and track imported descriptions and an equalizer.
So yeah, i think it's a great software :)
EDIT: i now use Strawberry instead, which is the maintained and open-source equivalent to Clementine :) but my review here still stands!
It's waay to unmaintained, the backlog is so large it will be impossible to resolve in decades. Soon this software will obtain status of historical software.
They keep the automatic sync of translation updates, even though they may never release a new version.

And while it can work with ancient tech like ICECAST or antisocial clouds like GDrive or weird services like IntergalacticFM you again cant do any of the cool stuff like add soundcloud,youtube or bandcamp as a source.
Once you have the strength to bear the ugly sidebar you are taken to internet history...when was the last time SomaFM was suggested...and look at that sidebar with its background image like grandma redecorated her house. couldnt make that up... so to me Clementine is the least evolving music player ever. not convinced? look at their webpage!
Cool but zero .DMG file to download at all. I guess no apple silicon support?? uhh its as old as 2016 so yeah just old software.
There seem to be no Mac compiled DMG available. The link to the list of options available on the official "Downloads" site end s up returning an error message and no installer to download. ::puzzled::
I 've chosen Clementine for the playlist random mode.
