That's what I was thinking for the next build. Having all clients running on the same Pi isn't necessarily the best idea, espacially with the Pi4 as the USB controller have a buffer issue I didn't have on my Pi3 when running multiple USB soundcards
I have speakers througout the house wired to my mechanical room and divided in 3 groups so I use a Pi4 with 3 USB sound cards with small amps
I am not sure what speaker setup I'd like when I move though! I might do it differently!
Mopidy (and LogitechMediaServer for that matter) will obviously let you stream local music or use other plugins (like TuneIn or other streaming platforms) but what really didn't work for me with librespot was the way it works when having multiple people using it.
Arriving home to my SO listening to music and needing to connect spotify to librespot, select join (vs take over), then stopping the music was what I didn't like much. I feel like queues are also not the easiest thing to handle on spotify
That being said, I prefered browsing/searching on spotify and I like the fact that we didn't have to use only one of our account to stream (so Daily Mixes on my account were affected by everything that was streamed for example)
I honnestly didn't find a perfect solution yet, so I am open to ideas!
I am not sure how hosting your own instance helps anyone thought. It's fun and it let you own/host your data, but it's not something that help the fediverse unless you have a lot of users which would be too much to the other instances?
If it wasn't the fact that I always had iasues with spotify on LMS/SqueezeBox, I would still use it today. Songs stopping and/or randomly skipping a few times per hour killed my experience
I started using Mopidy with Snapcast. My only issue so far is Iris's spotify search that's a bit of a mess
Edit: I know the fix would be to stop using spotify ahah
J'utilise jamais le meme pseudo à plus d'un endroit et sur les platformes où je publie (pas mal juste Reddit depuis 2 ans) je change de pseudo de temps en temps et je m'inscrit sans fournir de email ou de numero de telephone.
J'ai rien a cacher, mais j'ai rien a montrer non plus ;)
Edith: par contre, j'ai utilisé le meme pseudo partout pendant pas loin de 20 ans avant de réaliser que ma vie privée m'importais...
