I’m gradually removing myself from big tech and this month I’m focusing on leaving GitHub, as well as software hosted there. I’m looking for a self-hosted music server that meets these criteria:

  • Simple UI - Easy to navigate
  • Docker support - For hassle-free deployment
  • Runs on Pi3B
  • Compatible clients on mobile and desktop
  • Robust and well maintained - No buggy releases

Current Option:
The only option I’ve found but not tried is Funkwhale (GitLab).
Site: https://www.funkwhale.audio/
Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dBcKNoJAso.

GitHub-hosted exclusions:
All the other’s I’ve looked at are hosted on GitHub ( Ampache, LMS Lightweight Music Server, Supysonic, Gonic, Airsonic-Advanced, Koel, Jellyfin, Navidrome). So I won’t be using those.

Question:
Does anyone know of other options besides Funkwhale, or have you tried Funkwhale? Thanks!

Aside:
Some reasons I’m leaving GitHub:

  1. Revealed: Microsoft deepened ties with Israeli military to provide tech support during Gaza war
  2. ‘A million calls an hour’: Israel relying on Microsoft cloud for expansive surveillance of Palestinians
  3. ‘Use AI or get out…': GitHub CEO warns developers

    Yeah I understood what op is looking for. Having your code hosted on GitHub was what I was referring to with hosting, not your platform itself (we are talking about selfhosted stuff here anyways).

    The devs need to move off GitHub? No shit? Maybe, as a user, preferring projects that host their code elsewhere could be an incentive to devs using something else then? Like, looking for a selfhosted audio project and asking if there’s any that doesn’t primarily rely on GH?

    It’s not that it’s totally absurd being somewhere else. The whole KDE project has it’s own Gitlab and many projects are on Codeberg or their own forges. Yes, the overwhelming majority is on GitHub. That doesn’t mean looking for projects that aren’t is dumb.
