Literally plagiarised video almost word to word from another creator, if you're looking at this video, most likely it's on your recommended tab, go watch that, instead of this copy paste video

me still wondering what drugs u guys r on cuz i just have youtube play videos on loop in the background...

— @AbiyBattleSpell

Spotify keeps hiking their prices, and at some point enough is enough. In this video I try to replace Spotify by self-hosting my own music server, with a mobile app and recommendations, for free.

Wait. People actually like the social nonsense they keep pushing in Spotify?

I use a 20+ year old iPod for my music. I changed battery a couple of years ago, Now it works like a charm.
I could rip ther bigger part of myc music library to it, so there is always something i haven't listen to in a while.

I recommend using Amperfy for your music if you have an Iphone. I personally think Amperfy is one of the best open source apps for navidrome.

casaos + navidrome + yt-dlp + psysonic (linux)/substreamer(android and i dont know alternative for mac or ios) + tailscale is BEST

@Bozayi-zk5nu

hey, give Arpeggi a try. its really satisfying. give it a try and update the video

I have used music streaming services for more than 10 years now. So I spent about 1500€ for them, and when I cancel the subscription, I lose access to all my music. Imagine how much music you could buy and keep forever for 1500.

Just download your fev songs
Or use yt 😂

The thing with accessing your server on the go is that your internet needs to be good... When I try, it doesn't give me a bad gateway or a 404, but it doesn't ever load the page.

I pay Spotify because I need it on playstation :(

@dvmbrena

Great video, just enough detail for someone that wants to replicate, but not too much to lose those who don't. Perfect!

I use music brains and a used Sony Walkman. Same experience and I can leave my phone at home. It’s better for me if the phone is at home and I can carry my songs which I ripped from my cds so I can use it when I can and where I can. A friend of mine now has no access to the internet so he can’t listen to music on Spotify and can’t watch movies. So I said having also a physical media collection is also not so bad

In india 1 year for Spotify standard is less than 13 usd

Hey great video! I'm taking my music library to my homelab as my next project, as a little advice to anyone exposing their services to the internet, exposing a port may not be the best idea security-wise. You could use cloudflare tunnels, which give you https out of the box and never exposes your own network to the internet

@NanoLogic555
@

I recommend Symfonium for the Android client it's so customizable, and is actually comparable in features to Power Amp which is what I use to use for my Local Library

Sure both are paid, but both offer far more then the asking price to warrant that one time purchase.

@ProtoPropski

You're not self-hosting, you're pirating.

@jonjohnson2844

Personally I use tailscale

@TheBlueOrb-w1l

I like your videos...but for some reason you sound like a Minecraft youtuber to me😅

I'm paying 1.36 bucks for Spotify 😅 I don't think I gotta switch my account anytime soon (legacy plan)

@Costycansnipe

The Dev of Navidrome openely says, that its unsafe to use Navidrome without any Authentication on the web. You should atleast use something like Cloudflared and Cloudflare Access with SSO.

Also keep in mind, if you upload FLAC files, theyre atleast 20-30mb per file for a normal length track. If your Upload speed doesnt keep up with these files, you may have a bad time, i would recommend to use a simple and cheap VPS

So where are you now going to be getting any new music from? And where are we supposed to get the full amount of music we used to have on Spotify? If you had all theusic you wanted in the first place why did you go to Spotify in the first place?

@3:33 You had me stop at Static IP. In my place, the cost of static IP is $70/mo, while my Netflix+Spotify+YT Premium+DynamicIP Internet cost me merely $40/mo 😅
