I was recently using this fork before it was recently archived. It seems that every dev who puts their hand on it quickly backtracks (understandably so) that it became almost like a curse. Anyways, is anybody aware of a fork that it is still actively developed and maintained? Thanks.

P.S. I know there are other open source apps with a similar function, but I am looking specifically for the unique design which ViMusic has for its UI.

Thats what I have been using. Its based off RiMusic which was based off ViMusic.

Just adding a note. People should be able to backup your music in ViMusic or RiMusic and restore in Create. They seem to use the same database. Though I havent tried directly from ViMusic to Kreate. I went from ViMusic to RiMusic to Kreate.

Tested it out of curiosity. Restoring a vimusic backup crashes the app.

Thanks for testing that! I thought it might work but I was wrong. Guess people will have to do one to RiMusic first then Kreate. Hopfully that still works..
