Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I haven't tried navidrome, but my only gripe with jellyfin for music is that I can't find any non-subscription apps that work with android auto (if someone wants to point at one, let me know!)
I know jellyfin itself at least used to have android auto compatibility, but it was absolute shit and didn't have even some of the basic music controls when I tried, and I am unsure if any version of the app still has that even.
use finamp. it works fantastic!
I am, it doesn't have android auto.
i literally just got out of my car where i was playing music using finamp in amdroid auto. IIRC there is a major rewrite going on but the builds are stable. look in the repo for instructions to use the rewrite and not the basic play store version
Pretty sure I am on the fdroid version, but that is fantastic news.
I should probably actually look at utilising obtanium for apps like finamp.
Have you checked out Symfonium? Love that for music streamed from Jellyfin, and it has Android Auto listed in the settings, although I haven't used that yet.
Yes, it is good, but i will not spend money on the play store.
I understand the Big Tech revulsion, I'm a hardcore, privacy-first self-hoster 10 years deep, but the app was like 5 bucks one time and it's been my daily driver for about 3 years now. It tops every other android *sonic app. It has multiple backend sources so if you change your media server down the line, Symfonium will connect to it. TOTALLY WORTH THE MONEY!
I honestly dont listen to music enough for it to be worth it to me, but it definitely looked clean and worked well when I tried it.
I just wish it wasnt the only worthwhile option.
Musicolet?
Since when could you link jellyfin to it?
