I use Radarr and Sonarr for my movies/shows, and Spotify for music, but I do know there’s another *arr app for that. The question is, is it worth setting up and how easy is it to discover new/similar music as opposed to Spotify, given that Spotify isn’t expensive at all. And how do you fellow crewmen go about it?

    I use lidarr to manage my existing library and use airsonic to listen to it. For me it works great and I can import tracks from my Spotify playlist. But yeah, it’s more of a nice to have, for me personally. I use it mainly to keep things tidy.

      I like the interface of Airsonic, but it looks like it hasn’t been updated in 4 years, and Airsonic-advanced hasn’t had any action since February of last year for the experimental branch or 2020 for the stable branch.

      What do people use? I tried Navidrome a while back and wasn’t happy for some reason. Should I try it again?

        Airsonic is only for the web. For actually accessing my music I use either substreamer or that new Tempo app on GitHub. Much better experience.
