I never got into spotify because it was missing too many smaller artists back then. They are on there now, but I went back to buying music. On bandcamp [0] if possible, Amazon otherwise, and CDs as a last resort [1]. Recently put it all on my home server running jellyfin [2] (tried navidrome [3], but the interface was even worse), though mostly I still play it via network share on my desktop music player MediaMonkey [4]

- woodruffw 4y agoFWIW, I've enjoyed using Sonixd[1] as a Navidrome client: it's very polished and Spotify-esque in design (which may be a pro or a con for you). [1]: https://github.com/jeffvli/sonixd https://github.com/jeffvli/sonixd
- Semaphor 4y agoHeard of it, but haven’t gotten around to it. But it works just as well for Jellyfin. Not actually sure I need a desktop interface, as I prefer MediaMonkey anyway, and I have Jellyfin installed for videos as well. Navidrome just annoyed me because of their treatment of genres as 3rd class citizens ;)
- vanilla_nut 4y agoDoes MediaMonkey allow you to edit album, artist, and song metadata for your Jellyfin library? Metadata curation is the only thing I've had trouble with in more than a year of Jellyfin usage: seems like the only way to edit certain fields, like song ordering, is through a giant cloud of dialog boxes.
- Semaphor 4y agoYes, but I have to do "Replace all metadata" for "Refresh mode", kinda annoying :/
