Demo for Navidrome: https://demo.navidrome.org/ That web UI on mobile is so good, I don't know why I'd ever want anything else. Who needs an app when you got this right in the browser! I also fell in love with the first song I picked, Sad Robot by Pornophonique (what's that name though lol) and, eh, added it to Spotify Conversely, though, trying to search for something from my Spotify (like 30 Seconds to Mars) on Navidrome, it predictably comes up with no results. It is not as simple as "just spinning up". It is starting a new hobby because that money spent does not solve your problem. You first have to deal with getting your hands on the music and discovering what music you even want to be buying. Someone sends you a song name (that they discovered on whatever platform) and the first thing you have to do is see if it's on an ad-supported platform somewhere like in YouTube or if you can find the artist's website to preview it before buying it outright to even listen once (and the age of 30-second previews is also mostly gone) That's very different from typing it into your subscription service and 95 out of 100 times being able to listen to it without further complications, or being able to click "more like this" on the song you're currently loving and getting music with at least some resemblance, even if 3/4ths that Spotify suggests does not share the quality I was looking for it is still the source of most new songs I add to my favorites list |
