    This (moreso for youtube music, since Deezer seems to not have a lot of East Asian labels signed) is a huge part of why I’ve been building out a selfhosted Navidrome.

    Obviously there is the old school way of getting music. But Bandcamp is WAY more beneficial to the artists and ebay and Half Price Books are also awesome for grabbing music.

    And combine all that with musicbrainz for scrobbling and discoverability of new bands.

      I rrecently built a home server and tried getting into Navidrome, but I kinda disliked the UI - didn’t feel as intuitive to me and kinda clunky. How do you listen to your music primarily? If on a phone, do you have an app to stream the music to you?

        Symfonium

        It’s not FOSS and has the worst payment system possible (donate to the dev then send him an email, and he will give you a license for a single device), so don’t feel bad pirating it.

          Judging by the reviews on the app store, it’s at least a 5-buck one-time purchase and not a subscription as well as a worthy purchase. I’ll give this a try
