Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that (badabingus.ghost.io)

Full disclosure, I'm pretty new to selfhosting myself, and I haven't written a guide like this before, but hopefully this scatterbrained writeup is enough for someone out there lmao

This is just what works for me and how I set it up. Always open to ideas for improvement as well.

all the jellyfin music clients have weird glitches with band names and metadata. this has been with almost every (android) jellyfin client on 3 different Jellyfin servers over the years

i was almost completely sold on Jellyfin being my music server but it wasn't quite ready for me, or possibly there is something about my library it doesn't like.

    That's interesting to hear, finamp has been great for me for at least a year and a half. What kind of issues do you see if you don't mind me asking

    not OP, mine was miserable at detecting the song until i fixed my mp3's internal tags.

    It still crashes on some random songs on my kids playlist have never found out which one does it, it just stops playing randomly. I ended up ditching it for symphonium which isn't free or open, but OMG. If found all my sonos, and my pixel tab and just streams, even plex has issues on my complicated network, they download your whole library list and handle searches and playlists locally instead of trying to get jellyfin to search/random which it's not good at without plugins.
