how can i self host my music?
(toast.ooo)
Yunohost and Navidrome.
Navidrome server. Use podman. Buy a Fully qualified Internet address first, then go to cloudflare and proxy your IP to the new. Address. Finally in android install Ultrasonic or Subsonic and go to your server.
You don't need to have a Fully qualified Internet address. But I like it better than having to remember 55.655.67.533. but the IP address still works fine. The thing about the cloudflare proxy is that it never reveals your IP. So in case someone might be snooping around, they gotta get past cloudflare first.
Is there a way to do this if you don't have a static IP and don't want to use cloudflare?
Even without all this DNS thing, you can always reach your own IP from outside. The issue becomes a security issue. You will need to route your PC's specific Navidrome port. You can use any port you like, but you'll need it exposed thru. So that opens your system up for attacks from outside. With the cloudflare thing you can safely access your computer from outside without opening ports.
However you can sort of do this too by adding a couple more pod apps and using a dynamic DNS service. Portainer or cockpit, Pihole, and Ngnix Proxy Manager.
With portainer or cockpit you can organize the pods so they start-up automatically for example. Using your router, split your network into two separate ones ... One for yourself and another for your exposed stuff. Then use the pihole to protect them. Next set-up Ngnix proxy to route to different ports. If you get to my music.com, then it will route the name to a port. Without DNS you can also just route from your outside IP to a local host name. For example 56.45.35.76:657/music could route to NABODROME the local host name or simply to 192.168.7.12. there's a ton of tutorials on how to set these up on YouTube so go have fun. You might choose not to get into all this because it's a little complex. But you could, like many of us, really like it, and then you enjoy a little freedom.

I just use Auxio on Android or GNOME Music on Linux to listen to my downloaded files, and sync them via Syncthing.
So, self hosting is complicated. Everyone in this comment section has had tons of experience with it. I tried Plex, failed. Jellyfin, didn't connect. Entire OSes on a raspberry pi, didn't work.
I don't know your situation but for me giving up and just keeping it stored on my phone and manually updating is good enough.
What do you want it to do? If you have all your music, a bunch of folders with MP3s works.
I popped some songs onto my Jellyfin server, and that's worked out.
I was even able to stream it to my car using Android Auto.
I wish there was a mobile app of the same quality as plexamp for jellyfin.
@zeromoney I have a self hosted streaming service for music with #Jellyfin. But i think there's no an easy way to deploy it. You need to have some basic linux knowledge.
You pretty much just need an Intern et connection though it would be best if it was unmetered. It doesn't take much as far as resources go to host music. You could also think about just syncing playlists to your mobile device. Lots of people forget about that.
