I wanted a taskbar button for Navidrome at work. This is so I could quickly find my music in between the several open Firefox windows.
As the IT admin, I could've installed this. But I knew I REALLY shouldn't. It needed administrator rights, and I had no idea how secure it was.
So instead I used Brave for Navidrome PWA. Brave was installed as local user, so it couldn't bring down my entire organization if it got my password.
Now I'll be able to switch back.
You can do DDNS for free, using a client app on your server, rather than router.
I use cloudflare-ddns
As other's have said Navidrome is the way to go. Not the most featureful, but it's so much faster than every other solution that you make it work. It's also very close to a huge update to support plugins and stuff.
I use the DSub app. Free from fdroid. Configured to download 10 songs in advance, for when I'm driving with spotty service, and download my favorites.
It also let's you set different internal and external IP addresses, if you need that. I think most people do unless you run a DNS server.
Personally, I'm watching Volla.
Volla supports dual boot. Android and Ubuntu. Play with Ubuntu, work with Android.
Yes it is. PITA to work within your own network.
I run a DNS server for this purpose.
