navidrome, self-hosted is what I use. Personally, the less I have to contact google's servers for the media I enjoy, the better.
Sorry I don't have better advice, but alongside soulseek, lucida.to, and torrents, I have way more music than I think I'll ever be able to listen to in my lifetime.
Another vote of support for Navidrome from me.
I used Morphe as well, but I got annoyed at having to go and fix those songs that have the audio from the music video, for example Cake - Short Skirt/Long Jacket. Only option to not have that is to create a playlist and replace the music video with another version. Sometimes that meant using some random persons upload of the song. Not very nice to do when you just want to click "play full album" and enjoy music.
Anyway, took me like 6 months to build current music library, its around 120gb at the moment. Got all the most important ones there, now its just a matter of going "oh right I need [artist name] in there as well!" every two weeks. I set things up for my dad as well, so now he can enjoy the Navidrome stuff as well, thats a big bonus.
I've not come across any of those annoyances yet with Morphe, but I've only been using it for a day or so.
Oh, nothing wrong with Morphe itself. Its great, I love it.
But the Youtube Music part of it is a bit shit.
I need to get navidrome set up, but I'm also wary of selfhosting anything externally accessible at home. As it is I just sync my music between phone and pc which works well enough.
The one thing I haven't been able to find is a good music recommendation or discovery solution a la Spotify daily mixes
Set it up with NetBird or Tailscale so it isn't externally accessible.
Yeah, I use Tidal for recommendations, then download so they don't rug-pull me.
Ok I think this is a very attractive option. This is the first I'm hearing of navidrome!
Very relevant comment, navidrome is amazing
I've never heard of it before. It's sounding very convincing
What's the spot for music torrents nowadays?
rutracker, I guess, or any other public tracker. The more niche the music though, the less likely torrents will be alive.
I just use soulseek/Nicotine+ or I keep it old school cause it's never let me down and use pirate bay still.
This is the way to go. And it's really satisfying to see randos downloading your music. I never clear the "upload" tab lol
