My only "complaint" now is that the music controls on my keyboard and the KDE Connect phone app don't recognize MM at all.

Try winetricks corefonts. That should do it.

Would you also be willing to pay for such a version?
If I were me, I would be willing to pay a price of up to $30 for it. And now it's your turn, I'm looking forward to your comments.
