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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Immediately asks for location permission in the TestFlight app. That’s putting me off right off the bat.

very pretty. I do not own an iOS, but I'd consider this frontend if that was the case.

Is there a compelling reason to use this over Amperfy?

I would love a 'Dont stop the music' mode that any action that will (a) immediately play another track, or (b) reset/replace the current playlist had a simple confirmation dialog. This is my biggest annoyance with Amperfy (and most other subsonic-compatible players) -- while looking for the next track to enqueue; it's way too easy to accidentally tap a new track, rather than swiping to enqueue something else.

More customizable UI

I’ve tried dozens of clients and Arpegi is my favourite. I’ve been using it for a year.
