Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

There have been a few mentions of Navidrome. I find it works well for sharing at an album or even artist level. It can do playlists as well. But you must explicitly choose what to share, at which point it's generates a unique URL and will generate a web player and zip if you enable the option to download.
You can, of course, just make user accounts and distribute credentials.
If you're needing to offer browsable folders to easily copy, basically a filesystem-like experience, it's probably not the best tool.
Edit: one more thing to point out is that navidrome, jellyfin, and airsonic all construct music libraries differently. Navidrome is using tags, jellyfin uses file names, airsonic uses directory structure. Not sure about Plex.
