Ditching Spotify and YT Music (buddyverse.one)

Trying to ditch YouTube Music & Spotify for self-hosted music has been a struggle. I've subscribed to YT Premium today.

Here's how my attempts have gone:

Nextcloud Music (with Recognize): The web UI is great, has all the features I need. Downside: no transcoding and playback through Subsonic or Ampache clients is slow, sometimes causing server issues.
Jellyfin: Streaming works fine, but it doesn't recognize individual artists (my files are in one big folder, so albums are jumbled).
Navidrome: Similar to Jellyfin, artist recognition is off and playback isn't as smooth.

I'll try Plexamp next. What else should I try?

All of my songs are stored in NextCloud.

Yeah, but like MusicBrains and AudioDB plugins. It should scan through and try to match the metadata to better organize your files.

Then for mobile you can connect to the Symfonium app.

For mobile I also recommend Finamp. It is FOSS and built for Jellyfin, with offline support.

I am using the beta which has more clean UI and is very stable.

+1 for Finamp beta. It is great and under active development.

You can get the latest version here: https://github.com/jmshrv/finamp/releases/tag/0.9.11-beta
