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 🤔

#music #server #Linux @navidrome
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.
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
