That's so sweet of them to remind people to start hosting their own subsonic servers already
Can someone give me a rundown (or link to a good one) of a comparison between subsonic, jellyfin, plex, and these other services that let you host your own streaming service?
Here's the short and sweet.
SoulSeek - an ancient p2p filesharing system that... For some reason, copyright companies don't care about, but until they do, there it is and it's awesome.
Funkwhale - federated dudes all sharing music together, yeah, some of it is copyrighted because of course it is, also an audio server so you get that too.
Jellyfin - Great and modern. Makes a good music server by itself. Only reason it really wins over subsonic and the like is support and upkeep. A lot of subsonic apps are dead.
Plex - Jellyfin (but with corporate overlords)
Find music on SoulSeek, host on Jellyfin, Funkwhale or whatever *sonic fork is still updated, ???, profit is basically the game. Some people also find utility with apps that strip music directly from Tidal and Spotify. Your mileage may vary.
I prefer navidrome https://www.navidrome.org/ over Jellyfin for music as I find it much more responsive and it has extra features like smart playlists. Just adding an extra opinion for those interested.
I tried hosting funkwhale but never got it to work. Yeah I know, its a skill issue.
Thank you!
I only remember this one: https://github.com/basings/selfhosted-music-overview
But it's somewhat outdated
I have been doing that for around 10 years already, when I bought my first NAS with Docker capability.
I keep all my music locally. Ultrasonic app on the go.
I hosted mine but then I realised my ISP doesn't provide static IP so I couldn't access it outside my home so I quit
Just get yourself a Domain and set up dynDNS or similar, which updates your DNS entry IP address, as soon as it changes.
😌if we just would finally adopt to IPv6…
Tailscale works wonders
You can use something like cloudflare tunnel or a dynamic DNS service (like no-ip)
no-ip requires manually prolongue domain once a month on free plan. Duckdns doesn't.
Not having a static IP is not a problem at all.
CGNAT would be a much bigger problem, although also one that can be dealt with
Really why.
