Dude Navidrome is so great. I hooked my my decades worth of music collection up to it and now I can stream b-side tracks and indie bands that weren't on Spotify. Plus when I hit random I know it's actually random and not some algo to sell the newest slop that Spotify is pushing.
I didn’t think I’d get as much of a kick out of knowing that my random shuffle is truly random, but I do.
Self hosting music that I purchased is a really liberating feeling
I grew out of just about everything in my old digital library so it's been long gone, but I didn't realize just how much stuff I had on my old bandcamp account already. Grabbed all of that, bought a bunch more, obtained everything else from my Tidal rotations and slapped it all into Navidrome.
The initial setup is definitely a pain but the payoff has been tremendous. Not financially though - I spent more buying new shit from small artists than I would spend on a streaming service in a year. But that goes so much further for them than streaming does anyway.
Do you need to buy it again next year? Great investment!
