To all the friends I never met:

I am running a homeserver with all my music, videos, books, articles, source, etc. here is how you do it↓

  • get a old desktop computer
  • install gnu/linux on it
  • connect it to your router through ethernet
  • install nextcloud
  • install samba, create a smb partition on your new server
  • mount the drive into your regular computer, phone, laptop, tv. smart-stereo.
  • enjoy all your music from anywhere without cluttering your devices with music, movies or books, or articles, or , or, or
  • I usually just use vlc to access any media on my smb share :D just works
  • get the nextcloud-client for phone and your other devices and access your smb share that way if you like and upload fotos, video or music there. :D

Thank me later (also if you use ALL linux devices you can skip the smb part and just use netdriv

I store everything on an openmediavault nas and serve up using Plex, Navidrome, Audiobookshelf, and Calibre, all running in Docker containers.

Plex Amp is amazing.

I agree. I spun up Navidrome because it's free. Plexamp does require Plex Pass (which I pay for, but others don't)
