I just finished setting up slskd (soulseek daemon for automation) and integrating it with with lidarr. That’s the first step in my journey to drop my dependency on Spotify. Next step is downloading a ton of music!
I’m looking forward to trying out some music clients on both Android and Linux that support self hosted content and will possibly replace jellyfin if there’s a better fit. I will also need a scrobbler for discovery, but haven’t looked into that yet.
Major “what it feels like to enter an unfamiliar fandom as a noob” vibes from this comment haha.
“Scrobbler” can’t be a real thing 😭
Hope whatever you are doing goes well though. I still just download my youtube music playlist every once in a while and put it on my hard drive in a folder called “music” and that’s all the organisation i do lmao
You’ve possibly heard of Last.fm. It tracks your listening habits and builds a taste profile so that it can provide you with recommendations. It also predates Spotify and most premium music streaming services.
The plugin I’m using for Lidarr can also download from YouTube music. So far, Soulseek has worked well however, and provides me with lossless (flac) files.
