Is it your local server, which streams music for your PC and phone? Is it something else?

What about streaming music from your server to your work laptop?

      This is my exact setup! I love symfonium because it lets me download specific playlists that I want to have at all times (in case of bad cell service), and feishin for my laptop/desktop where offline downloads aren’t a concern.

      I am still keeping an eye on Tempus though, if it gets good enough I might swap over since it’d be one less google play store app.

        Symfonium’s dev supports a Google-free activation method. You have to have F-Droid, add a specific repository, install Synfonium from there, make a donation to the project on Ko-fi, then message the dev with details of the donation and your installation ID so it can be activated. A bit clunky but better than nothing.

        Indeed. I was a bit skeptical at first, because, well…there are a lot of shitty media players out there and I’d never heard of Feishin. I did some skirt lifting and some reading and figured I’d give it a go. I used to use MusicBee, which is a pretty good media library player. MusicBee, as good as it is, lacks the…shall we say, ‘candy’ to it. Then I tested out Feishin, and that’s thje end of the story. LOL

          Way back, i used to have a Linux TV with an app called Clementine on it for music. The magic was being able to just hit play on a song and the playlist used the scrobbles for LastFM to keep the thing going. Great for evenings with friends, it was like having Spotify before Spotify existed.

          Feishin does this! It tries to keep the same style going, although I now used ListenBrainz instead.
