It’s the only open source client I’ve found that works relatively well with Android Auto :)

AudioMuse-AI is amazing for large music libraries

A fellow Tempus enjoyer

This is the way

Admittedly I don’t know anything any Ente, but I’m extremely satisfied with Immich. Haven’t upgraded to v3 yet but will be soon

Append only, like others are saying.

Navidrome server, which I access either through the web UI or through the Tempus app on Android

I’m running Qwen 3.6 35B A3B on my Ryzen 8700g and it runs pretty well, but the bigger problem there is probably the cost of RAM

Lol, seems like they had some trouble over trademarks or something

This may be totally off base from what you’re targeting, but maybe an ESP32 running ESPHome and connected to an E-Ink display such as those sold by Waveshare? https://esphome.io/components/display/waveshare_epaper/ You would probably need some separate system set up to actually generate the content displayed on the screen, depending on what exactly you want to show. It would require a fair amount of work, but would likely be the cheapest and most flexible option.

There’s a feature in ESPHome which allows the device to call a URL to download an image at specified intervals, then display it on an attached screen https://esphome.io/components/online_image/#online_image which would require running a service somewhere that generates/renders a new image at regular intervals and makes it available for download via a local URL. For just simple text, I assume there’s a simpler way to update what the device shows over the network.

I switched from many separate Proxmox VMs for all my services, to a single VM with like 15 docker compose stacks (though still with separate VMs for things like TrueNAS). So much easier to deal with, though it does have some drawbacks of course

Random failures

If you’re a masochist and have a managed switch, you can make do with a device that only has one NIC, by putting WAN and LAN traffic on separate VLANs on the same physical interface…

You can get a free subdomain from https://desec.io/ so maybe that could help? I did that for a while before buying a cheap domain. You’ll get something like stuff.dedyn.io

Whichever you go with, I highly recommend looking into https://github.com/NeptuneHub/AudioMuse-AI, which does analysis on your music so you can generate playlists/mixes from a specific song or from moods/genres

I got cc for my domain, because it was cheap and easy to remember. Though technically it’s for the Cocos Keeling islands :P

Yikes. I backup to a local PBS VM too, but I’m passing the NVMe controller through as a PCI device and it works with no issues. I do also backup to the cloud and an external SSD, I’m not just trusting my proxmox host

Apparently you’ve been promoted to developer. You have no choice but to take responsibility now 🫡

I self-host audiobookshelf, and it’s working pretty well for me. It doesn’t have tons of features, and the android app is a bit janky, but it does what I need and I’m happy with it.
