  • A lot less since I started using docker instead of running separate vms for everything. Less systems to update is bliss.

  • If at some point you’re going to add more hardware it makes sense with a NAS. Otherwise just add USB I guess.

  • Well, no. You need to subscribe separately to streaming services. And yes, I was sceptical before I tried it. There is nothing else like it, if you want to take control over your digital music library Roon is the best way.

  • If you take the free trial you’ll see why there’s nothing else like it today. Its next level. Plex works fine too ofc. But its nowhere near as polished.

  • People will moan and groan because paid software and not opensource but there is nothing even close to Roon for doing this. https://roon.app/en/

  • OP here. Thanks for all your input! It’s really an embarrasment of riches which will take me some time to navigate. But thats part of the fun, right? Again, thanks everyone.

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Now that vmware is over, what should I move to?

  • I hope its as good as the first one, I loved that.

  • PA-220 fw for internet access. An old workhorse, Synology DS1812+, for filesharing. A mac mini with Ubuntu running Plex and Roon also hosting Dashy in docker. A Hwg-ste to measure temp in my cabinet. I host a RIPE probe. An RPI4 running Zabbix. My next project is moving from PA-220 to something in the 400 series (probably 415) so I can upgrade to newer PANOS.

  • I use Roon right now. Its great if you want to tinker around. I also have Plex which is more plain for music but works well enough.

  • This. For exactly this reason.

  • Roon is self-hosted but not open spurce. Incredible at playing music, beautiful UI etc. Not free but best in class imo. https://roon.app/en/

  • Switch: Raiden IV. NDS: Ketsui Death Label. Both are so much fun!

  • This. I just returned to Roon after a years hiatus when I saw that this feature (streaming outside the home) had been added. And the just added "MUSE" to the streaming as well. The sales pitch for MUSE is: MUSE is the new name for Roon’s sound engine and audio processing suite. And now MUSE has landed in ARC – with bold styling and sound quality never before seen or heard in a mobile music app!
