First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

    I have also tried hosting a subsonic server but I ended up returning to Spotify because I didn’t see much benefit to it at the time. Hopefully using navidrome this time will fix some of the issues I had with it. Have you tried any desktop clients for it, or do you just use a browser? I didn’t like the web version of subsonic but I know you mentioned that its cleaner with navidrome.

      I have been using one called Sonixd, which is a dead project. The author decided to rewrite it and rename it to Feishin and the rewrite is much worse, but Sonixd does the trick. You can use any Subsonic compatible client and there are others out there.

      The Navidrome website is really not bad. It’s much cleaner than Subsonic itself, and if your browser supports global media keys (Firefox does), you can still control playback from your keyboard (or macro pad or whatever).
