I’ve been using YT music anyway, but I recently started using my Navidrome server by just yt-dlp’ing albums + tag with MusicBrainz picard and boom. A bunch of songs I can own until my server burns down.
I feel a little bad about pirating, but I’m a college student who hasn’t even gotten a job yet… But I will be buying merch or music off bandcamp in the future when I know I have the budget for it!
I recommand monochrome(.)tf, it’s basically Tidal for free so it has much better quality than YouTube

Likewise. I’ve been putting off setting up a Soulseek+Navidrome stack on my home server. I’m sure there’s a way to integrate ListenBrainz suggestions too. First ad I hear, I’m doing it.
Can’t talk about navidrome, but jellyfin has a listenbrainz plugin :)
I use Jellyfin for video but it doesn’t strike me as the best for audio…
That’s why I use Symfonium on my smartphone.
Or alternatively FinampI started using Symfonium and I’m loving it. Only I set up Navidrome, not Jellyfin, as the server.
Again? Lol
Just a heads up, Deezer has been working hard to improve their UI a great deal. It is so much less stressful to navigate than Spotify. Sound quality is also better to me. And not being forced to mix music with ad-infused podcasts is so very nice.
why is it stressful? you search for the track, and you click play.
No. It’s just the principle of not supporting fascist enabling bootlickers
