I bought a cheap usb-powered hand-held oscilloscope DIY kit off Aliexpress. It was a fun soldering project and now I have a (very minimalistic) oscilloscope for when I need one (which is very seldom).
Indeed I have Funkwhale on the radar, but tbh I don't have a strong use case for streaming at home. Was thinking about putting it on my rPi -- but in the end it's even easier to just stream from my iPhone through Bluetooth (or a good old jack).
My priority is to build a clean library with beets, transcode it in mp3 and feed it to iTunes, to have it on my iPhone & iPod.
I agree so much!
I switched to Apple Music 2 years ago when my hard drive failed.
At the beginning it was alright, very convenient to have (almost) everything available on hand, in the same app as before.
But now I can't stand it anymore. I have so many albums that randomly split all the time, version of tracks that change or become unavailable altogether.
I'm moving away from streaming and am working on building back my music library (that I will be owning for good).
