Navidrome is one piece of a large ecosystem https://opensubsonic.netlify.app/docs/
The thing Navidrome does is that it includes almost everything in one convenient install.
Use any server backend you like (I use Gonic because it is extremely simple) and then connect to it using any client that supports subsonic or opensubsonic
I don’t say this to be mean so please don’t take it this way, but I think this mentality is… privileged? If the free internet goes then so does society as we know it, and the obscure french film collections from the 80s isn’t gonna do anything for you in that new reality. The things that need to be prepped are plain text and take up no space at all, in the grand scheme of things. It is feasible to self-host a text-only version of the entirety of Wikipedia, but nobody here is talking about that. It’s as if people think there’s gonna be some middle-ground where the internet is totally shut down and somehow life goes on as normal. You’d think priorities would shift a little away from media consumption towards “oh shit how do I learn how to filter my water”.
It would sure suck if you were the only person on earth with that french film collection, but do any historians actually know how to reach you? Have you made this information available? If not, then your archive is not useful.
Everyone asks “where do we get more storage?” and not “do we need to hoard all of this?”
I don’t know if I agree. I get it, but it’s kind of important that people know that if they do something weird with a piece of software, that it might expose them to remote code execution or root shell exploits. It certainly does make you numb to the word “critical”, but I don’t have a solution to that.
Many exploits and vulnerabilities are not relevant within the scope the software is typically deployed, so remain unfixed for a long time, even if they are rated high severity.
Language evolves. “Free software” does not distinguish between free-as-in-beer and free-as-in-freedom software. “Free and Open” removes all of the ambiguity. I will continue to say FOSS when I mean FOSS because I don’t care about the term some sundowned legend made once upon a time and I do not want to explain this every time it comes up in conversation.
The guy who can’t read when his computer tells him he’s doing something stupid is gonna interview the guy who’s infamous for yelling at people for being stupid? Awesome, I can’t wait.
My Pentium G3220 box running OpnSense has never bottlenecked me, so I imagine you can run it on basically anything you can find in a dumpster.
