Jellyfin or Kodi can do the job too. There is a music server written in Rust with a web frontend somewhere on github as well. Managing any software written in PHP is too much PITA for me.
I do something similar with Plex. Is it just as smooth as Spotify or is it a little janky like Plex can be.
I’ve considered doing something like this since I’ve thrown up the black flag again (fucking streaming services acting like cable). But have been hesitant since music gets released so frequently.
To all the friends I never met:
I am running a homeserver with all my music, videos, books, articles, source, etc. here is how you do it↓
Thank me later (also if you use ALL linux devices you can skip the smb part and just use netdriv
Optional step, steal all the music you like with yarr containers

I’ve heard of Kodi it’s basically like your own netflix, no? Going to investigate Jellyfin along with the other suggestions.
Jellyfin is plex but with all the paid features for free.
I store everything on an openmediavault nas and serve up using Plex, Navidrome, Audiobookshelf, and Calibre, all running in Docker containers.
Plex Amp is amazing.
I agree. I spun up Navidrome because it’s free. Plexamp does require Plex Pass (which I pay for, but others don’t)

Do you use plexamp? It’s very nice and smooth for music
I guess a lot of people are flying the jolly roger since the streaming services split the big IPs 4 or 5 ways
Tbh, I’ve had an even easier time installing TrueNas on an old PC and then installing Nextcloud via their web interface.
I prefer using a Subsonic API based music streaming setup. They work out of the box and have all the features you’d want.
Mind sharing your audiobook collection? I’m having a hard time finding good resources
Oh my bad I mistyped, I meant I have a collection of books, I don’t think I own any audiobooks, but I find a lot of them on youtube.
