I am just a hobbyist and don’t do any tech for work, but I enjoy tinkering. I have a Nextcloud that I like to use to keep files between my phone and a few computers in sync. That does include my media. For my phone I have been liking an app Power Ampache 2 as it lets me stream and save music locally (I don’t have unlimited data so somethings I do want to keep).
Part of the motivation is just because and just to host more things makes me feel more pro. I am a bit curious about what otherset ups people in the community might have settled for and why?
Both are fine if they fit the layout of your media collection: Where Jellyfin requires you to have a certain file naming scheme and folder structure (and will cause absolute chaos on the metadata front if you haven’t), Navidrome doesn’t care about either and relies on ID3 tags instead. Also, Navidrome is a lot more light-weight than JF. I like to use it combined with the FOSS Tempus app (the latest in a long line of forks, and currently actively developed).
