I was messing around with another jellyfin/emby instance specifically for my tunes and podcasts/audiobooks.
I think the app from fdroid was fintunes or finamp or something like that. Worked okay!
I second jellyfin / finamp combo. Make sure to checkout the beta version if you're getting it from the playstore, they are redoing some parts of the UI.
Thanks for this. Finamp looks really nice.
i really really enjoy jellyfin + symfonium - it's a paid app but it's super awesome imo
Good suggestion! I intend to mess with finamp and symfonium. I had no idea jellyfin was so popular as a music backend so I'll just keep using that.
i switched from plex to jellyfin because i like the FOSS approach more. But plex is so incredibly much better as a music backend than jellyfin.
Jellyfin is fine, but not perfect
I probably won't switch to Plex because of what they did with sharing all your activity without your consent, but I'm curious what you liked better about it as a music backend?
I switched for that exact reason. And I certainly did not want them to share any of my activities 😁
It was just better with metadata, it was snappier when finding songs.
+1 for Jellyfin and Finamp but check out Audiobookshelf for podcasts and audiobooks. It even has regular checks for podcasts that you can set for rss feeds.
jellyfin and finamp is an amazing combo
