If you want to selfhost this is an excellent and well maintained cross platform solution.

This used to be the right answer but it was abandoned 2 years ago. Lots of unfixable bugs if you want to self host.

Floccus has similar functionality and an active developer and community.

How did beets mess up your library? Any data corruption inthr id3 tags?

How did they get messed up, did the embedded tags become corrupt?

No Linux client, really?

404 link broken

Is symfonium FOSS?

Does airsonic support smartplaylists like navidrome does?

I see navidrome has smart playlist support. Do any of the various subsonic clients that work with of support smart playlists?

Custom field support- TXXX is also nice but I was refering to the id3v2 standard fields. It looks like beets doesn’t support most fields actually.

How about composer or conductor for classical tracks or remix for EDM, language, grouping, media type, mood etc.

These tags have been part of the id3 standard for over 2 decades, I wonder why beets choose not to support then.

I read that doc but sadly most fields are missing. I cant see beets being useful for any serious collection without basic field support.

Its too bad, beets looks promising but Linux lacks an open source solution with decent id3 tag support. There are several windows apps (all closed source) that have been around for a long time with very good comprehensive id3 tag support but none foe Linux.

Im looking at beets now but like most solutions, they pucked a subset of id3v2 fields and left out a lot of others.

Do you know is it possible to use beets with missing fields? For example I use publisher and producer and beets doesn’t have these fields.

Is roon open source?

Can anyone recommend an open source server that works with more then the most basic id3 tags? This limitation has been present in every solution I investigsted over the years.

I disagree strongly with your assessment and find your characterization of a fellow Lemmy users opinions as “garbage” to be distasteful.

The .world admins inaction, and refusal to provide any communication at all on the situation despite half a dozen treads and hundreds of comments of users seeking clarification speaks volumes about the admins intent and is frankly disrespectful to the needs of the. world user community.

Meta is a known bad actor creating real harm in the world. Associating with people like that is perilous. In a dangerous situation, it is often wiser to take proactive action than to wait around and just “see what happens”.

Thank you!!

I just created an .ml account and intend to close the .world due to the meta threat.

I will try your code tomorrow and let you know how it goes.

Thanks this should be at the top of the thread.

I am looking for another instance as well right now. lemmy.world was a mistake.

Thank you this is extremely helpful!

I want to know too, they arent saying despite a lot of their users asking which is irresponsible.

I anticipate they will federate and I will have to close my account and move.

Agree unfortunately lemmy.world is refusing to release their position on this.

I anticipate they will federate and I will have to leave.

Meta is dangerous.

You are indeed very naive. Meta is creating real harm in the world.

The U.S. Surgeon General just released a warning about how social media is likely harming children.

The CDC just released a report that everyone is becoming depressed.

This is largely facebooks doing. A decade ago they hired all the top psychologists in the world and had them study how to make their products as addictive as the most dangerous drugs known to man for their profit and your detriment.

This is their legacy. Associating with these people is dangerous. Federating with them is suicide.

I anticipate that lemmy.world intends to federate with meta.

Due to this I wish to close my lemmy.world account and migrate to another instance.

Can anyone hemp with this? I am a new user and I do not know how to move all of the communities I have subscribed to.

Is it even possible, is there a guide anywhere ?

I just got here after I recently dereddited but I defacebooked a long time ago.

If lemmy.world federates with meta I will delemmy.world.

If all Lemmy instances federate with meta I will delemmy.

Its pretty simple.

Is it open source?

Do you know of any that are accepting new users?

Is it even possible to have your Lemmy account sign into Mastadon?

I tried to do this with the Tusky app and it said “Failed authenticating with that instance” so I figured it isnt possible.
