PlexAmp is an amazing bit of software for a phone. It doesn’t translate well to the desktop, but it’s still pretty good.
Most smart TVs have a native plex app available too.
Comment on how can i self host my music?

I use a Plex server and the PlexAmp app wherever I want to listen. There are probably better options, but it’s something I set up years ago which was dead simple and requires almost no maintenance.

Yup, that’s what we do as well. 30tb of music, TV, and movies. All available to me and my friends wherever we are.

Plexamp is the best music service I’ve ever used and it’s a great way to get into self hosting. Once it’s set up why not add some tv and movies?

Agh Plex always runs me the wrong way… It acts like closed source software as much as is possible. Went with Jellyfin and it’s been great. But haven’t tried music.

I actually plan on switching to Jellyfin soon but I think I’ll keep Plex running just for Plexamp

Take a look at the Finamp desktop client. It comes very close to the Plexamp client from back when I was using Plex.

I run both for a similar reason. It’s the same library, point both services at it and you have more choice of apps. Yet another benefit to self hosting.

I use Jellyfin for all my video but I use Plex for my audio. Plex app is just so much better than finamp.

I started with TV and movies and thought why not add some music!
