I posted this over at https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/navidrome, but I thought I'd post it here, maybe someone has had experience with this.

I've been noticing demo.navidrome.org showing up in my firewall:

pFsense:

abuseipdb.com:

As with anything entering or exiting my network, I am cautious and curious why my instance of Navidrome has the need to contact demo.navidrome.org.

I am running Navidrome as a Docker Instance. I have combed my compose file and can find nothing in that itself that would trigger Navidrome to 'call home'.

Is this for stats, or other? As of right now, I have demo.navidrome.org blocked until I've gathered some information.

BTW, sweet piece of opensource software. I tip my hat to the dev team(s).

Maybe, but my question would then be 'Why the demo site?' Wouldn't it be pulling updates from Github or Docker?
