Not My First Radio is a lightweight, local-first internet radio player built around the joy of stumbling into a station you didn't know you needed. Search the Radio Browser directory or paste a stream URL, save what you love to your library, and let a CRT-style visualizer pulse along to the audio.

The Not My First Radio player tuned to BBC World Service, alongside a search results list for the query 'jazz'.

It's a PWA that runs entirely in the browser — your library and listening history live in local storage, never on a server. Sleep-timer your way to bed, or install the native macOS app for a window that stays out of your way.
