Interesting!

I’ll try it out

IT here, Plesse don’t involve us… We don’t want to to deal with this bs either

Yeah but as far as i know, unraid doesn’t really do anything that for example TrueNAS Scale can’t do? And TrueNAS is free and really rock-solid.

So if someone doesn’t want to host an Ubuntu Server i’d recommend checking out TrueNAS Scale and simply throwing some dockers at it

I never used unraid but was thinking about it

I went to truenas for my NAS and Ubuntu server for my application server instead. I use dockge for my docker webui and I’m happy with that setup

With a bit of work homeassistant can be a quite good voice assistant.

You can either revive some old android device and use that, or get an ECHO M5 for ~13€ and hook that one up.

You can even run some local Ollama AI and use that for the voice assistant nowadays. It’s quite useful and home assistant can be integrated into music / audiobooks aswell with something like Music Assistant 2.0

i prefer to say i ddg’ed it on kagi but to each their own :D

ah good to know, will try this then - thanks!

wouldn’t trust that tbh

Oh there are tools to download from spotify directly ;) They pretend to be a player, download the songs into the offline cache and decrypt them using your login credentials.

I can DM them if you’re interested. It’s interesting because yt music premium still only givey you 256kbit/s but spotify premium goes up to 320kbit/s

Okay so this is for subsonic, well subsonic is a paid service so i’m not really in favor of that :D But this would check two of my three points. I tried their demo but didn’t find anything for “instant mix / song radio” do you know if it has something like that?

yeah nothing beats audiobookshelf imho^^ never tried jelly for that to begin with.

Well appears as if i just stay with jellyfin for music and try to just forget that instant mixes exist :D

The clients i use all can use getSimilarSongs API so worth a shot i guess… depends on how good navidrome handles that because jellyfin surely sucks at it :D

I love jellyfin with all my heart. It’s an amazing application but it’s really really barebones when it comes to music sadly.

For my mobile player i use symfonium and it’s awesome.

I’d really love to use navidrome but those spotify playlist’s are really important to me lol. Spent a few good years of curating into them and i’d would be way too much work to rebuild them by hand. Also expanding on those playlists is super comfortable with spotify, downloading the playlist and just syncing it.

Do you use the “instant mix” “song radio” of navidrome? (does it even have one?) and if yes, how do like it?

you’re welcome!

to be fair, it’s more of a gimmick when using it in your home. I have a notebook that i use to test out new distros on and i can hook it up to my LAN and quickly install something without whipping out the USB stick.

Also the mini gaming pc hooked to my TV is a victim of being reinstalled every couple months after i tinker around too much.

It’s a 64GB stick and i manually keep it in sync with my netbootxyz instance

Looking at my Ventoy stick i have multiple folders for different OS:

Arch_Based:

• CachyOS
• Garuda

Debian_Based:

• Debian Bookworm
• Mint
• Zorin OS

Fedora_Based:

• Fedora Silverblue
• Nobara

GamingBox

• Bazzite
• ChimeraOS

ServerOS:

• Ubuntu Server
• TrueNAS Scale

Windows:

• Tiny10
• Tiny11

Tools:

• Avira Rescue System
• SuperGrub2
• UBCD

Sad, all they tried was bring some magic to the people and teach them basic spells and all we do is complain… When the dark lord attacks and none of us know any spells we’re screwed

We should give you some honorary title for that

Havent found a good solution for me aswell.

I used to use spotify and let it create similar playlists to what I already had but ofc they killed that feature in favor of their useless smart shuffle…

This isn’t really the right place to ask this. You’d be better off in some networking community
