A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

So, imagine I'm using any sort of streaming server. Is there ANY of them that have the ability to suggest new stuff, which is the number 1 and only reason I still use Spotify?

If anyone could answer this including the setup they have to run it, that would be awesome.

Plex does alright at suggesting music from your own library, and also has some really nice DJ-like song transitions that are legitimately way better than any other track fades. However, Plex users have been frustrated with the company's slow response to fixing long-standing bugs, and some of the features are paid. It's also not open-source.

No idea if it can suggest music that isn't in your library; I know that they integrate with Tidal though, so maybe if you have that it'll also suggest stuff from Tidal?

Plex will display the mixes tidal generates for you but other than that it just general popular stuff. Not necessarily what you listen too.

It also is separate button from your libraries
