The instances that give the best results seem to also get throttled pretty often on the source search engines, to the point of near uselessness.
Thinking of hosting my own, but the maintenance seems pretty involved according to the docs.
What’s your experience been like?
Edit: all right y’all, thanks for the feedback. I’m going to spin up an instance.
I deployed it in a Docker container. It is my default search engine. I use it constantly. Besides Calibre & Navidrome, it’s one of my most heavily used, selfhosted apps.
Navidrome❤️
It is so undervalued for how amazing streaming your own music collection is.
It is indeed. Even yesterday, I was in the kitchen making my ‘world famous’ Italian Seasoning bread with 7 natural herbs and spices. I have an old phone I use just for the WiFi, pulled up my Navidrome instance, set the phone up in the window sill, put my headphones on, and had a good time. I was even inspired to make some fudge.
