01·
1 year agoI feel like I found a new reason to avoid amazon every time I looked for a product not being sold under some random fake brand name. I cancelled prime over a year ago and started shopping elsewhere. It costs more, but the quality of just about anything is higher.
I avoid amazon for the same reason I avoid walmart: everything is a simulacrum of an actual product. Somehow, amazon is even worse than walmart.
So yeah, boycott amazon and shop at places selling actual products.
It works with any subsonic compatible app. I use symfonium on android. Its a paid app, but worth the price in my opinion.
Also pro tip if you use symfonium for caching stuff offline. Setup a smart playlist with rules for what you want to save offline (played in the last 30 days or something like that). Then toggle caching on that playlist. That basically gives you a smart, configurable offline cache.
Symfonium supposedly supports audiobookshelf, but I haven’t been able to get it to work. I just use the audiobookshelf app.
Oh yeah, and navidrome can be setup to scrobble to lastfm or listenbrainz if you use that. Convinient so you dont have to worry about scrobbling from your device.
Been using self hosted navidrome + symfonium for a few months now and love it.
