Lightweight open-source audio player for Unix-like platforms focused on high sound quality, extensive codec support, playlist handling, Internet radio, plugins, Winamp-style skins, cue sheets, metadata display, effects, equalizer, and efficient resource usage.
It doesn't have the same features from AIMP and it looks more like an alternative for Winamp than an alternative for AIMP.
It has a lot of customization and works similarly to AIMP, and it is very good for editing metadata. One minor issue, it doesn't support editing metadata for opus files, which for me personally is a deal breaker, but probably isn't for most.
Most users think Audacious is a great AIMP alternative.

Very simple and light with great playlist functionalities
Clementine looks ugly and dated. It doesn't have a variety of themes for the GUI (skins), for the icons, plugins, color changing, there's no complex equalizer, no sound effects and audio convertion like AIMP. It lacks a lot of things and shouldn't be compared to AIMP.
Is very dated and does not have half of the functionalities. also kinda ugly tbh
Most users think Clementine is a great AIMP alternative.
Strawberry is a music player and music collection organizer. It is a fork of Clementine released in 2018 aimed at music collectors and audiophiles. The name is inspired by the band Strawbs. It's written in C++ using the Qt framework.
The actual fork of Clementine that is still maintened!
Strawberry is a really good alternative for AIMP, with similar ability to edit metadata and organize music. It does not have an audio converter or support for live lyrics, though.
really great software. proper fork of clementine that's kept up with the test of time
Almost everyone thinks Strawberry is a great AIMP alternative.

DeaDBeeF is a lightweight graphical music player created for easy playback of music and management of playlists. It supports major audio codecs and tags, global hotkeys, gapless playback, streaming audio, command line control, and has an 18-band equalizer.
DeaDBeeF is a great alternative to AIMP because it supports the classical Winamp/AIMP narrow vertical interface. It is also extremely lightweight and consumes very little CPU. Add to that the fact that you can fully control the interface layout: do you need a visualization? where do you want your track progress bar? do you want an extra button for any of the player's functions? do you want do rename any and all visible elements of the interface? DeaDBeeF is the answer!
One of the very few (or the only) player for Linux that supports the same narrow vertical layout, with a window-wide progress bar.
Almost everyone thinks DeaDBeeF is a great AIMP alternative.
