I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers…

Since I already had a jellyfish server for TV/Films, I’ve been testing it for music recently. And the Finamp app is pretty great. I can create playlists and download them for offline listening.
That’s definitely a nice feature for sure but getting Jellyfin to even recognize the album/songs means they all need to be properly labeled and filed correctly and that some database somewhere needs to have that album’s metadata available which can be real hit or miss. SoulSeek seems to be decent for labeling and allows you to choose who you’re downloading from but its still a clunky mess at the end of the day.
I’m all for self hosting as much as possible but for me personally its just much more convenient to use a streaming service for music, and these days I find myself listening to podcasts the most which aren’t going to be available on the high seas (nor would I bother if they were because I’m not going to listen to them again).
Not trying to convince you in particular of anything, but for anyone who may be interested in switching to a different podcast app, I’d recommend trying Antennapod.
