With a bit of work homeassistant can be a quite good voice assistant.
You can either revive some old android device and use that, or get an ECHO M5 for ~13€ and hook that one up.
You can even run some local Ollama AI and use that for the voice assistant nowadays. It's quite useful and home assistant can be integrated into music / audiobooks aswell with something like Music Assistant 2.0
My wife starts shivering just thinking about eating a tomato but when eating my bolognose, which I do not add a single gram of sugar, says she likes tomato sauce. Just not tomatoes 😅
Oh there are tools to download from spotify directly ;)
They pretend to be a player, download the songs into the offline cache and decrypt them using your login credentials.
I can DM them if you're interested. It's interesting because yt music premium still only givey you 256kbit/s but spotify premium goes up to 320kbit/s
Okay so this is for subsonic, well subsonic is a paid service so i'm not really in favor of that :D
But this would check two of my three points. I tried their demo but didn't find anything for "instant mix / song radio" do you know if it has something like that?
The clients i use all can use getSimilarSongs API so worth a shot i guess... depends on how good navidrome handles that because jellyfin surely sucks at it :D
I love jellyfin with all my heart. It's an amazing application but it's really really barebones when it comes to music sadly.
For my mobile player i use symfonium and it's awesome.
I'd really love to use navidrome but those spotify playlist's are really important to me lol. Spent a few good years of curating into them and i'd would be way too much work to rebuild them by hand. Also expanding on those playlists is super comfortable with spotify, downloading the playlist and just syncing it.
Do you use the "instant mix" "song radio" of navidrome? (does it even have one?) and if yes, how do like it?
i will never understand that stupid craze about expensive engagement rings... i engaged to my wife without a ring. It was just a very emotional situation, i was sure that i wanted to ask her... and then i just asked. No ring, no special event planned out or something... just asked her, and she said yes.
People paying cars worth of money for a ring is so unbelievable for me.
Yeah but as far as i know, unraid doesn't really do anything that for example TrueNAS Scale can't do? And TrueNAS is free and really rock-solid.
So if someone doesn't want to host an Ubuntu Server i'd recommend checking out TrueNAS Scale and simply throwing some dockers at it
