I am excited to have found #Navidrome But it's apparently SO good that I am wondering if it's at risk of being corporatized after I've committed to building my offline system around it 🤔

oh damn. didn’t think of that. fork it to hell and back

rapheson music server uses opensnsonic API, been keeping my eye on that one.

i used gonic at first and loved that it lets you see the folders. but navidrome is slick

Its developed under GPL V3 so it getting enshitified in the same way a lot of other applications are going is much more limited. Not impossible but I imagine if they go to change the licence and shift it to a paid product you’d see a fork made pretty quickly.

Your fears are warranted, but navidrome is built as a server for the subsonic streaming api (opensonic) and there are a few projects out there doing the same, so there is natural competition there.

The releases are clear and well-defined,

I’ve been using it for a few years, it’s been great.
