Thinking of adding Navidrome and Jellyfin to my set up (lemmy.world)

I am just a hobbyist and don't do any tech for work, but I enjoy tinkering. I have a Nextcloud that I like to use to keep files between my phone and a few computers in sync. That does include my media. For my phone I have been liking an app Power Ampache 2 as it lets me stream and save music locally (I don't have unlimited data so somethings I do want to keep).

Part of the motivation is just because and just to host more things makes me feel more pro. I am a bit curious about what otherset ups people in the community might have settled for and why?

You asked for personal setups so I'll answer with what i have. Jellyfin does my video stuff. TV, movie etc. And for audio I use navidrome. I tried to use jelly for all of it but the music playback sucked (for me). Navidrome is subsonic api compatiable and gives you more options for clients therefore. I even wrote my own tui player :)

If I were you I'd set up jellyfin (not exposed to the internet) and see how it goes. If the music work then awesome, you have a one stop shop for all your media. If not, then add navi on top.

Have fun :)
