I'm interested in C or Go, but i'm open to ideas.
I have plenty of sh scripts i created to integrate my tools and system, so i have some experience and i don't want a scripting language like python.
My first plan is to learn the basics of the language and rewrite some of those scripts.
I think my first pick will be a script that uses ffmpeg to convert my flac files to mp3 or opus. I use sndconv -opus/-mp3 and it checks if there are flac files in the folder (i only have full albums), converts and puts in a folder named "$artist - $album".
My long term goal is to make a cli/tui music player like cmus.
UPDATE: i'm having plenty of success with Go right now. I just wrote a basic version of my music conversion script. It's just converting a music i pass as argument to mp3, but i'll keep working on it and adding functionality just to dip my toes in Go. It seems like a good language and i'm having fun!
Thanks for all the answers!

admittedly I should have asked for an invite sooner and posted this on the group request thread instead of here but here we are.
~tildes is the most active sub by far, so it only makes sense it should be split up further.
Maybe split it up to ~tildes.site (for the look of the site.), ~tildes.syntax (for the markdown used in tildes.) and ~tildes.community (for self-awareness, talking about how we could improve this community, what it needs and where it's headed.)
Any opinions?
