Never felt that way to me, but each cat their own rat.
As frequently as I hear about Navidrome though, I may have to check it out.
Comment on Something like multi-library support for self-hosted music? Trying to recreate iPod feel
SteveDinn@lemmy.ca 8 months agoI currently use Jellyfin and Navidrome. JF just seems really awkward for music. It’s like it tries to treat music and video like the same kind of entities, and they just aren’t.
I really really want a better FOSS -compatible music app.

I maintain a Jellyfin instance for audio that points at the same music library as my Navidrome instance does just so I can use the Jellyfin client for Android TV. I would absolutely LOVE to have a subsonic-compatible Android-TV-focused app, so I could finally single-source my music. It’s just not friendly to guests to have them have to log in somewhere using their own device to my music server and then have to cast to my main entertainment system at home, when Android TV is just sitting there, acting as nothing more than an old-school Chromecast.
So, don’t get me wrong, Jellyfin is THE BEST video server software FOSS or not, IMO :)

For android there is Finamp, a music-focused jellyfin client app

I use it! It is miles better than other Jellyfin apps for music, but there are still things I wish it still had.
