What does HackerNews think of navidrome?
🎧☁️ Modern Music Server and Streamer compatible with Subsonic/Airsonic
1. Mox mail server at home (PTR record set up with ISP) - https://github.com/mjl-/mox.
2. Web server (no external hosting hurray); TLS set up via LetsEncrypt.
3. Navidrome for streaming my music collection to my phone/computers. I ripped my thousands of CDs to MP3. I use subtracks on my phone for listening to it, and sonixd on my computers (Mac/PC). https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome
4. mpd for driving some speakers via a USB audio interface so I can use some speakers plugged into the Pi for listening to music in the same room as the Pi (practicing guitar). I control this via the Supersonic app on my phone.
5. Wireguard VPN so I can connect home.
6. PiHole for my network at home. Combined with Wireguard, it means my phone is permanently connected to my home network and gets ad-blocking and stops apps dialing home. I use DroidHole on my phone to see what's going on.
7. xrdp server running, so a usable desktop is always available.
8. miniDLNA running connected to a NAS box so that I can watch all my DVDs easily on my TV downstairs (I spent weeks ripping them).
9. Tuya IoT API for turning some smart plugs in the house on/off via cronjob; I do this instead of using the timer in their app because it means my phone can be off the network/abroad and these plugs/lights still turn on/off.
10. linx-server (https://github.com/andreimarcu/linx-server) for sharing files so that I don't have to use Google Drive and share with people that way.
11. Peer Calls (https://github.com/peer-calls/peer-calls) so I can video conference in decent quality without having to use Google Meet / Teams etc. I also host a STUN and TURN server on the Pi so that Peer Calls works behind NAT.
12. Runs CUPS so that my very cheap Samsung wireless laser printer actually shows up as an AirPrint printer for my wife's iPad/iPhone and shows up in Android printing. (The printer does not natively have AirPrint capability but CUPS means I can provide it to users on the network).
It fetches time over NTP on a cron job. It also blocks various ASNs and IPs by country on a cron job to stop annoying remote pests and cloud providers. It also runs Monitorix so I can see system load, and goaccess on a cron job so that I can see who's hitting my website without having to resort to analytics nonsense.
It boots from USB3 (it has a NVMe in an IcyBox caddy).
Incredibly useful device.
I switched over to Navidrome[1] as a self-hosted solution about a year ago, and I've been extremely happy with it (especially since it exposes a Subsonic-compatible API that most clients know how to use). The only thing I really miss is the mobile client experience: Spotify handled periodic disconnects (like on public transit) very gracefully, while no Subsonic clients that I've tried do so nearly as well.

these have good app support so this could be nice
Navidrome supports the Subsonic API, so there are a number of native clients compatible with it. I chose Substreamer on iOS. It’s not free, but it’s a one-time cost that doesn’t try and drag you into any subscriptions or anything. There are free alternatives like iSub, but I found their UI lacking & decided Substreamer was worth the few bucks.
- beets [1] for music tagging
- m4b-tool [2] and tone [3] for audio books merging and tagging (Note: I'm the author of these)
- iTunes and an iPod Nano 7g and iPod classic 2009 to listen "offline" (although audiobookshelf supports offline downloads)
- self-hosted navidrome [4] + substreamer[5] for music and audiobookshelf [6] for audio books on my android / ios devices
Everything with docker containers without further dependencies. I must say, that this works pretty good so far and I never missed something really bad on id3v2.3 or mp4/m4b native tags.

As DAC for Raspberry the IQaudio DAC Pro seems to be highly recommended. I personally own a Hifiberry.
Probably the biggest difference however is that, instead of a custom API, it supports the somewhat-standard Subsonic API, which makes it usable via a large collection of native clients. It also has a few more features like multiple user accounts, etc.
TBH, the overlaps are big enough that I'm not seeing the space for Euterpe. I suppose the installation is a little bit simpler if you don't use Docker?

I purchase music from Bandcamp, where everything can be downloaded DRM-free. https://bandcamp.com/
I have a VPS with Navidrome as a web streamer/front-end. Navidrome also provides an API compatible with Subsonic. https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome
For iOS, play:Sub has a pretty nice UI, streams everything from the server, transcoded on-the-fly from FLAC to Opus. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/play-sub-music-streamer/id9553...
It's quite a joy to use and it feels good that the artists (especially lesser known) get paid more than through spotify/apple. I also throw a little bit of money at the Navidrome dev every month.
