I rediscovered the joy of my own music collection by quitting Spotify and switching to self-hosted Navidrome.

Can't crossfade, developers won't add the features the server doesn't support it. I get a random crashes at least once a session. Search sucks because I don't feel like wiring up elastic. Doesn't stream large lists, browse to P? With 5000 artists and 20K tracks? Forever.

The beta is a little smoother but doesn't address any of my issues with it.

Symphonium is 100 times better, never crashes, solves lists/streaming by downloading the lists and handling them locally.
