Music - Self-Host - how to start / what's your stack?
Hi there,
I use a Jellyfin server to host my own movies and trying to think about doing the same about music. The problem is that I watch roughly one movie a week but a lot more of music (all day long). For now I'm mainly using sp0tify but the UI is worse and worse, constantly asking for more money.
I don't care much about my playlists but I'd need to start a list of the groups I listen to, probably around 200/300 ones on "random".
I'd be curious how you started you transition / technical one too.
Thanks
Edit: wow Thanks a lot for the great advices. I already have a tailscale + Jellyfin so I will probably start there with symfonium. For the download I will give soulseek a go.

Well, I've maintained my music collection from the olden days, and acquire new music as I discover I like it. I mostly have trash vaporwave tastes so I actually buy most of my music cheaply on bandcamp. My music collection isn't massive like some peoples, but it's a decent amount of GB. Mostly mp3, I'm not fancy enough for FLAC.
As for hosting the music, check out Navidrome. It's a great subsonic compatible service that can run on your OS of choice. I use Symfonium on Android to access the library. It supports playlist syncing, offline caching, etc. etc.
I also use Navidrome + Symfonium. It's a great combo.
I've had navidrome setup for a while, but could never find a really good client for my android phone... thanks for the Symfonium link, it looks great. Will definitely give it a go.
I had a good collection back in the days, but i've lost track of my old server when moving. I will need to search how to even organize all this :'(
Thanks a lot for the recommandations <3
Another vote for the Navidrome+Symfonium combination.
I'm still sad that the Tempo development seems to have stalled.
For those who don’t know, "trash vaporwave" is a sub-sub genre made of ASMR sounds of garbage trucks with mallsoft music in the background.
