  • the problem with FW’s docs is that they are too opinionated, they expect a strict user and directory structure that should not be required for docker deployments. I modified the example docker-compose to use volumes instead of binding to host locations (except for the music:ro folder) and it didn’t like it at all. I get that they prefer using ansible playbooks over docker, but even when starting from a fresh debian 12 install it’d fail, even though I followed that guide to the tee.

    As someone else said on the thread, it’s weird but there’s no much choice for multi-library music-centric servers. Guess I’ll have to wrangle Jellyfin into submission to tag my music properly.


  • tried jellyfin even before Navidrome: the problem with Jellyfin is that as good as it is tagging and managing movies and tv shows, it’s atrocious at music management. Even though I painstakingly tagged and sorted my music using MusicBrainz Picard, there are tons of albums misplaced, or entire artists catalogs set as a single album. Same music collection on Navidrome worked OOTB and was perfectly sorted.


















  • Tasks.org and logseq here, ended up being the simplest way after bouncing off grocy and other overly detailed systems.

    Tip: before going through with hosting NextCloud, you could get /e/ accounts, they don’t give much space but since it’s just rebranded NextCloud, you can try it out and see if it works for you.

    Currently we use several tasks boards so chores are separate by type (shopping list, maintenance, bills, chores) and logseq’s journal on the app makes it flexible to take notes or whatever you need (audio notes, pics, links, etc)
