Where in the world are Rockbox users

Lille, France.
Nice to see Rockbox has a huge user base in Europe. 
Bought my Sansa Clip+ in april 2011 and installed Rockbox immediately! I particularly appreciate EQ and balance settings (as my right ear is a bit weak...  ) — even compressor settings now that I use it mainly for listening to podcasts.
Keep on Rockin' in a Free World!

I was wondering that, too. Great idea!

Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada is where I am located!

Mostly use it for just playing music - no podcasts, voice recording, or radio. But I find the database / media library system far better than the one that came on the stock Sandisk firmware on my old Sandisk Sansa Clip+

Oregon USA here. Sending my sincere thank you to all involved. This is the most amazing project, I've been with it since the original iPod. Now I use it on an IMod 5.5 gen  240 gig modded by Vini Rossi. Rockbox has given me extreme joy. Kudos guys

Hello, I'm a new user of the Forum.

I'm in Barking (East London), England.

I had previously used Rockbox on a Sansa Fuze, which I recently managed to fry by charging it with a Bluetooth sender (for my hi-fi) plugged in and charging at the same time! I won't do that again. My previous install worked, but only on a functional level (which honestly was good enough).

I managed to find a Sansa Fuze+ reasonably cheap on E-bay, and this time I installed using the installer (which is included in the PCLinuxOS repository) and everything seems to be running OK. It's given me stuff to do during the Coronavirus lockdown and I'm having fun!

UK,  from villages, outside of NW london.

had a iaudio x5 when i was a kid. recently a fiio m3k. also very tempted to get a xduoo x3 II as it now has rockbox support for usb flash drives    , so tempting.... aliexpress sale time too in some hours... hmmmmm only a few £ off... cheaper on ebay... hmmmm to resit or not to resit splashing £on it! twitching.... 

using my DAP for playing music on my diy boomboxes and sound systems. thanks to speed and reliability and low power usage and features. open source rockbox support is key decider for me to buy a DAP. without it i wont get it.

I have several RockBoxed players: The ones I actively use are the Fiio M3K & Sansa Clip+. I prefer them to other players precisely because I can use RockBox with them, and being able to do so is an important consideration for me when looking for new players.

Rocking a Rockboxed 6.5 gen iPod. Its hard drive is almost dead, so I'll be modding it soon. Pretty neat little thing, not gonna lie

Thanks so much all you contributors for some wonderful f/w, unlocking the potential of my ipod and removed the frustrating dependency on the over-bearing proprietary app.

I don't know what the expected lifespan of an ipod classic 6th gen is but I've been using mine regularly for at least 10 years.

I'm interested in what other users have experienced over the years wrt device longevity and if running the rockbox f/w actually improves that.
