I've been running Navidrome + Symfonium for over 3 years and it replaced Spotify. The only thing they have over my setup is a near infinite number of playlists. But I do everything myself now, I've reconnected with my music.
My main issue with Spotify was no lossless audio at the time, and many tracks weren't on there, if they were they had a habit of disappearing. Now I can listen to any track, remix, bootleg, and even the 1700+ tracks my friend digitised from his vinyl collection until perpetuity.
Symfonium, btw, is truly the best music streaming app, the customizability is beyond anything I've seen
Literally the only thing about Symfonium that's lacking is having to manually scan the library when adding new music. I use Feishin on my desktops, which some manages to do it in the background.
Feishin is so epic too, I love it
Yeah that's true. But once metadata is cached, it takes like a minute to scan my entire library!
