Are those… cheap? They don’t look cheap.
Airsonic, which is a fork of a fork of subsonic. It works great for music. Video support is there, but finnecky.
On Android I use DSub, which is/was a paid app. It works great, best airsonic/subsonic app I’ve used (all subsonic apps work with airsonic).
When you add music to your “now playing” on your device it cashes the tracks and doesn’t delete them until the cache reaches a certain size, which you can set in your preferences. So you could set the cache to 50 gigs or whatever and pre-load 50 gigs of your favorite songs from your server. Or just cache/stream on the fly from wherever via your phone’s data or random wifi.
Does anyone else self-host their music? (I suppose this would also be a thing if you stream from Spotify) but my music device greatly benefits from having some form of Internet connection for when I want to update it.
I self-host, so when I add music to my server my phone sees it automatically. I wouldn’t want to copy my music onto my server and onto an mp3 device, nor do I want to pay for separate internet service on an mp3 device.
Thank you for the recommendations
Found glider in fdroid, I’m digging it. Thank you.
It’s there a frontend or app or something for that site? The web interface is so dated.
I still use reddit when I need to ask some obscure question about some topic that isn’t well represented on Lemmy yet. I don’t browse or lurk anymore though. (Kind of like how some people just use Facebook for communication and not for the newsfeed.)
Check out beehaw if you’re worried about missing news. That lemmy instance has way less shitposting and seems to have healthy discussion.
Between the mixed feeds on Lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, and beehaw I haven’t missed any big things that I’m aware of. I have other friends on discord and irl and if they talk about a big news story it’s never something I missed.
Funkwhale is interesting, but feels more like a plex/subsonic/jellyfin server than a social media place. I can’t follow artists on Funkwhale and listen to their latest posts. There isn’t a “feed” anywhere, it’s more like a giant shared-music server (unless I’m missing something).

You can save money and eat fast food, but you pay for it with your health.
You can save up and get the nicer car, and you pay less for it in the long run with upkeep.
Are you able to download your purchases? I feel like the answer is “no,” but if they were serious about your library being “yours” downloading your purchases would have been part of their service plan from the start.
