If you want, you can self host an Navidrome instance and listen to your music in your devices with Substreamer (in fact, any subsonic compatible client works with navidrome).

I read “Debian is for servers.”. WTF?
Oh shit, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD MY DAILY UPDATE OF VERY IMPORTANT PACKAGES FROM GNOME to compile myself just for the sake of having THE VERY CUTTING EDGE OF THINGS.
/s
BTW Are you using Arch?
The misconception of Debian as an “outdated” distro is… alarming. IDK but I am running Debian 12 (coming from latest Fedora) and I don’t feel any sign of early deprecation or that an already “old distro”. It’s smooth, stable and usable, like things should be if you use your computer to do other stuff and you rely on your installed software to be there for you when you need it.
People tends to freak out if the latest packages aren’t installed. Stop it, please, security patches are more important than having the latest Gnome/KDE version. Perhaps if we stop selling that idea in Youtube videos, newcomers to this space will not be rushing to install the latest things without knowing if they are worth and really good distros like Debian, which is NOT a corporate backed Linux Distribution, will get more traction.
(PS: in Fedora, you are a guinea pig for future RHEL updates and ultimately, more profits for IBM)
Back in the day (1999/2000) Linux seems to be a small niche, fun and novelty. I started with Turbolinux :D
Already installed it today. You won’t regret it.
Love this thread! Here is my setup (with some questions for the experts!):
For my “”“HiFi system”“” (amp + loudspeakers) I use Moodeaudio in a Raspberry Pi with a HiFiBerry DAC hat, so it is a mpd with modifications reading my FLAC collection from a NAS (an Odroid XU4 with the custom case and a 3TB harddisk drive).
Connected to my amp there is an old Mac Mini Server 2011 which I use to download and “curate” music before it goes to the NAS. In macOS, VLC is my preferred way to listen to music, but sometimes I use Tidal to stream music. I tried Pine Player but it is unstable as hell, at least the version that you can install on High Sierra. Any solutions here?
I have a Navidrome instance running in my NAS and use Substreamer in my daily drive phone with a external DAC (Truthear) and Truthear Zero IEMs. I need help with Android resampling, how can I avoid it?
Also, I use an old iPhone connected to a Headphone Amp that I use as a network streamer. iOS doesn’t resample sound :D with Substreamer. The headphone Amp powers an Audio Technica M40x headphones.
It depends. GNOME on Wayland + Nvidia runs great. But if you try the tiling manager camp, you will run into several issues in sway, hyprland. Things like having to use software mouse because insert nvidia excuse and high cpu usage by just moving the mouse.
Well… I don’t know, I would recommend GNOME on Wayland or maybe KDE, haven’t tried the latest Plasma 6 release, but outside that, avoid it.
