Multi-device is coming soon to emu. Lots of technical hoops along the way, but opens up the use-cases such as paired wearable devices or multiple agents working with different devices concurrently

For the past 10 days I've been dogfooding emu by building a native @jellyfin.org music client for android blog.marathonlabs.io/blog/dogfood...

Small details make the experience so much better. Had fun choosing interpolators
