it’s my favourite site for that really forbidden shit!!1!!!11!

i‘ve first used jellyfin for movies and series for a while and then decided i also wanted to add music streaming to my nas, so i put it into jellyfin. there were a couple of things that bugged me though, and so i also installed navidrome. jellyfin and navidrome have access to the same directory with all the music i own, and i have both finamp as well as amperfy on my iphone, and i really quite prefer navidrome with amperfy. so i would say that if you already got jellyfin for movies/ series and you don’t need a lot for a music streaming platform, it’s perfectly fine. however, if you need some more music streaming specific stuff, like a nice workflow for creating playlists, you may prefer to add navidrome.

i like use amperfy on ios and i think it’s nice. for jellyfin i tried finamp, but i disliked music streaming via jellyfin in the end (mainly because making playlists was a hassle)

amperfy takes me back to the old days when i used itunes and an ipod touch interface wise

fair, but considering that you mentioned autoruns and such, i guess you need more specialised things anyways, so maybe kionite just isn’t for you. i don’t use it either, but for my normie friends who need nothing but a browser, office, and mby steam (in that case mby bazzite), its awesome

i have handed fedora kionite to a non-techie who was super happy with it, cuz it looks like windows, but most of the things you need, you can safely get via discover.

im using tidal because it supposedly pays more than spotify, deezer and apple music. (also because of privacy concerns with spotify) i’m not an audiophile and tidal works a little different to spotify, but it’s good.

just know that there’s no hand-off or remote controlling of different sessions (i.e. spotify plays through your browser and you control it from your phone), unless devices are specifically built for that (like speakers with tidal support)
