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.

    A 2.5" SSD and a sata to USB cable, Mullvad and torrents-csv. I don’t have time for all that overhead, maintenance on that stuff is worse than the time you supposedly save by automating everything. I used to do the deluge seedbox dav server thing, and I had to disassemble it for a reason and found my life got easier after that. Every now and then I just back what I’ve downloaded recently up to the drive.

    I do want to run a seedbox again, but just to archive and make available certain things that need to stay available. All the jellyfin owncloud and all that stuff is not worth it to me.
