Is there a decent offline player for macOS ? Vox isn't anymore, with basic paid features and cloud bloat. Opus support is crucial.

update: Just found this, written in Swift with skins support, neat :) https://www.producthunt.com/posts/re-amp + https://skins.webamp.org

I use Vox but without any cloud or premium features. It's free and works well enough on my Mac.

Yes it was great, and still … I use Vox 2.7.7, but not sure how long it will last with macOS moving forward. It was last version without requirement to login in cloud and pay subscription to use features as simple as equalizer. But even with this version, I had to `chmod -x /Applications/VOX.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/*` to stop background crap.
