Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I use a DAP with an SD card on the go, because my whole collection is lossless and I like fidelity. However, it's convenient to be able to stream music to my TV while doing house chores, in addition to allowing family access.
the family bit is key i think for needing a home server. some TVs you can do via BT to the phone.
but if you're setting it up anyway for your family, then yeah, best to organize around the server.
good luck to you!
Another option if you don't have a family is to use DLNA for streaming to the TV, most TV's have native support for that and you can just set up your computer to work as a DLNA server.
