GNOME's streaming radio app is... really good
Shortwave is a Rust-based streaming radio (IP radio/internet radio) application written by Felix Häcker, and it's my favorite way to manage my streaming radio stations on Linux. It's a GNOME Circle application but I use it on KDE Plasma and Sway, and it works fine over there (for me anyway). Maybe you'll like it!

Vor 2 Wochen habe ich den #Schreibtisch im frisch renovierten #Arbeitszimmer wieder aufgestellt. Nun ist auch ein vernünftiger #Arbeitsstuhl da und ich erarbeite mir stückchenweise die ergonomischste und energiesparendste Arbeitsumgebung. 1 PC, zwei Notebooks mit Dockingstation, 4 externe Monitore, eine Tastatur und Maus - aber bitte nicht alle gleichzeitig immer an. Und die primär genutzten Systeme ergonomisch optimal positioniert.
Das ist ganz schön tricky und man muss viel probieren - final verkabelt wird erst zum Schluss. Und was ich erst jetzt nach Jahren kapiert habe: Die #Monitorsteuerung von #Gnome kann man an die physischen Gegegenheiten anpassen. Wenn die Monitore über Eck angeordnet sind, dann kann man das so auch modellieren. Und wenn man dann ein Fenster vom Monitor oben auf den unten rechts verschieben will, dann ist das auch der Weg mit der #Maus.
Das ist sehr hilfreich - und das habe ich jahrelang nicht kapiert. Autsch!

This will not qualify as a single program, but I love how pressing just the "Super" key in #GNOME (since GNOME 3) allows you to view all the open windows in all of your workspaces and also to search for any file or utility or app (even ones not installed)!
I find the conceptual unity in this design stunningly brilliant!!!
