Thanks for the honest feedback @faka2 @oblvnnwtnjhn 

I can get where you're coming from. I've been here at Deezer and witnessed the support for this idea. The good news is that we're making progress internally to get this developed as well 

@Rudi  is there any advance in the Linux version? May be an alpha or beta release?

I am getting impatient.. I know you are not the problems but.. come on

Not yet @Alblinux but we keep pushing for it. We're organising our plans for the rest of the year so we'll keep insisting on the importance of this feature. The feeling is that we want to develop this but we need to sort out some stuff first (other must-have features and bugs that keep annoying you and the other users) 

Depends on what "features" are we speaking. Bugs okay. They are always the first thing to do, but.. other features over compability? I think it's not the way to go. 

When you have to do a job for move something to another site. You would do the first thing before getting this job bigger than before.

Sure, that's the other side of the coin @Alblinux we have to think of demand as well - imagine our favourites' limits for example. It's been on the pipeline for a long time and requires a lot of development.

Stay tuned on this one, I'm sure it's worth waiting for 

il come back when you have a native linux client supporting hifi, until then il be with spotify

Thanks for the honest feedback @zhksh please subscribe to the topic so that you can get notified with updates on this and hopefully come back 

I was a little harsh earlier in this topic, but thanks to the AUR package for ArchLinux I find Deezer the service that follows the right path. I appreciate, that even though your software was not released for linux officialy, it is possible to run it there. You have open API, which is great. HiFi is available everywhere and now it is  cheaper than in other services in my country. Great job guys!

I want to share some steps I used to get Deezer work as app on Raspberry PI Linux by using Chromium.

Steps are in the attachment. I think with small adjustment they would work on any other Linux distro.

I am using /tmp for cache for the sake of speed becuase PI’s root disk is slow (my /tmp is mounted as tmpfs), but you don’t have to set those switches, then  your  cache is default ~/.cache.

Also my link is https://www.deezer.com/hr (hr=croatia). Yours can be your country code. Or whatever URL opens when you login in any browser in deezer.com.

Just use mellowplayer you're good to go.

I am here to wait native client of deezer on linux. Please support linux :)

Thanks for supporting the idea @ozanuzer  every little bit helps!

Thanks for sharing temporary alternatives @Raif Coonjah @dk1111 

Browser player is not good for pc. I will use Spotify till linux client appear, meh!

tic tac, I am waiting still. I am gonna stay 1 more month until I am going to spotify again.

Not only for linux support but there is less music than in spotify in my country( spain) So.. may be I am going to go to spotify until deezer client appears to gives them another opportunity

We'd hate to see you go, @Alblinux 

Our developers have just confirmed that they're working on this possibility - I'm unable to give you further details at the moment but I'd stick around a bit longer, it's one of our wishes as well 

Any updates on this ??

Thank you for your support @numi.mickey 

We're trying to see if this is something we can now fit on our plans, so you need to give us a couple of months before we can have more information about it. But it's something we want to develop, yes 

@Rudi We keep meeting on different threads.   I’m also a Linux user and that’s my main reason for using the web player which generally works pretty well.    I’m rocking Peppermint which is a light weight distro based on Ubuntu. I haven’t tried using mellow player or any of the other players but would definitely like to see a dedicated desktop client for linux.  It might be useful to Rudi and the developers to know which distros to focus on. I imagine Debian/Ubuntu and the wide Arch family would be some of the top contenders.    Are there any Slackware or Gentoo users in the Deezer community? 

Deezer: Good news everyone! Instead of making native applications we will use Electron. It has some overhead but makes building for other platforms very easy.

Community: Great! We will have an application for linux!

Deezer: Ummmm... Actually, no. 

@Dmytro Nazaryk Has it been officially decided if Deezer is going to use Electron or are the devs still considering native apps for different distributions? I don’t know how using Electron would compare with mellow player or other players in terms of overhead. Any thoughts on this?

@Rudi Would it be useful to have a poll to see which distributions members are using, or is Deezer going with Electron? Also, is anyone in the Deezer community using FreeBSD, GhostBSD or one of the other BSDs? Let’s not forget OpenIndiana. and even less popular systems like Haiku.    Heck, maybe someone out there is still rocking a rig with Amiga or OS/2 and using Deezer.   This kind of user fragmentation might be a challenge to the developers, so maybe a poll would give them a better idea of which distro to focus on.

Hey @groover @Dmytro Nazaryk 

Thank you for your support, glad to see your comments here. It hasn't been officially decided yet, but as we've used Electron for Mac and PC, I believe it's quicker to get something working on Linux that way, instead of a completely native app for different distributions. I'm asking you to wait until another couple of months to see how this is going so that I can give you more info on the subject 

yep we need a linux version.

Working on openSUSE 15.2 using repo, Thanks!

can you give us the link of the package?
