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 rubs 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 have heard symphonium is very good if they are looking at closed source Plex anyway. It works with jellyfin and navidrome.
I just use syncthing to sync all of my music to my phone's SD card. Then PowerAmp since there aren't many fully featured foss music players. I am keeping my eye on Auxio though, keeping it installed and updated.
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!
