Thinking of adding Navidrome and Jellyfin to my set up (lemmy.world)

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?

Can't help with Jellyfin, tho there are many here who use it, so maybe someone will chime in. I do use Navidrome, and it checks all my boxes. It's a pretty comprehensive package, and recently they have introduced a plug in environment. I have not got into the plug ins yet. If your music collection is rather haphazard, I'd recommend Beets. Turn it loose on your music collection and let it do it's thing.

Good to know. I used to have a rather disorganized collection. I like to use Strawberry Music Player on my laptop and it can fetch album covers and metadata.
