I see that when people ask for music servers, people frequently suggest Navidrome or mpd/mopidy. I haven’t tried either. I’m just using Jellyfin as an all-in-one. I’m wondering why do people choose to use a dedicated music server over an all-in-one like Jellyfin?
Is the extra overhead worth it?
I’ve been using Jellyfin for several years and couldn’t be happier. Tbe beta update of the Finamp music player for Jellyfin is a UI overhaul that makes it nearly perfect for playing music on both my phone and my computers, gapless playback, support for downloading songs for offline playback, Spotify-like seperate Now Playing & Next Up queues. Makes it hard to want anything else tbh
