If you really want to kick this up a notch, install Soularr and slskd and let it just churn on your library and drip music into your folder. No solution for the spotify discovery algorithm, at least not a good one. But this stack is solid.

Instead of slskd I recommend using nicotine+. I found slskd worked fine, but was a pain to set up. I found a Nicotine docker that works just like the app inside a web UI. Much less of a learning curb for someone who's not familiar with servers.

Interesting. Thanks for that. I started this project a few months ago then got sidetracked and am about to get back into it.

Here's the link to the docker I used. There are a few others on github, but this one seemed like it was the most actively updated.

I liked slskd perfectly fine once I got it going, but I couldn't get my partner to use it as she was used to nicotine and didn't like the new interface. Once the Docker was set up in Portainer there was very little additional configuration and the rest was inside the nicotine webui app.
