Yes, self hosting Navidrome is the way and I could never look back. I love it. Especially the Feishin app for Navidrome on desktop.

In Illinois, where the citizens will soon have to provide ID just to use their devices. Nothing will come of this and they’ll continue to do it. Everything, everywhere is working on tracking and spying on every single thing we do.

Edit: Sorry, didn’t mean to reply to your comment

Jellyfin doesnt handle music quite as well as Navidrome does. Jellyfin is awesome for watchable media but it lacks a little on music. Navidrome handles artist metadata better. For clients, 100% Feishin on desktop, its just about perfect. On mobile, Castafiore or Resonus I think are two of the best. Finamp is great for a Jellyfin client on mobile but still it depends on the Jellyfin server which again doesnt handle metadata as well.

What would you suggest for a prowlarr replacement when you get rid of it? And what would be the reason for getting rid of it? Just curious since I use prowlarr.
