• Ask HN: Feedback on this proposed funding model for supporting musicians?

  For context: I recently set up a Funkwhale[0] instance [1] for Communick subscribers, where people can upload their music collection, stream on mobile/web and share with their friends. That's useful already and can be thought of as a replacement to the original Google Play Music, but I guess that those with large music collections will either just play from their dedicated devices or self-host a service like... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Favourite music streaming service?

  I use my own service, but have heard great things about https://funkwhale.audio/. Source: 12 months ago

• What 'selfhosting' solution is for me?

  I run Funkwhale. I can listen to my songs online from the browser, or on my phone using the Subsonic protocol (I use an app called dsub on Android). Source: about 1 year ago

• I don't want streaming music, I just want to stream my music

  For multi-room-audio, I use Iris+Mopidy+Snapcast [2] alternative frontend to my Funkwhale library. [1]: https://funkwhale.audio/ [2]: https://github.com/jaedb/Iris. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Looking for advice on streaming MPD database over local network to multiple clients

  On the other hand, if you want a single Spotify-esque service from which multiple clients can stream the audio without managing their own databases, there are Subsonic and derivatives which also offer transcoding options. I use Airsonic for this purpose and use it to stream my music collection from my phone via Ultrasonic (available from F-Droid if you use Android). Source: over 1 year ago

• Is Kodi or any addon able to stream or download media from cloud storage services?

  You should look into one of the subsonic forks. Airsonic https://airsonic.github.io/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Most private music streaming available?

  What they're talking about is starting up a server so you can stream your own music files. This would involve setting up a server (either renting a hosted server or setting up your own machine) starting up an application like Airsonic (one of many Subsonic compliant applications), finding a good client to use like Ultrasonic (one of many Subsonic compliant clients), setting up domain names and DNS to point to that...
