Most used selfhosted services in 2022?
Logitec Media Server - Music server. Yes, I'm old enough to have a still-working original squeezebox, as well as multiple squeezebox radios. They're awesome.

What are some good things to try with my Raspberry Pi 4?
I ripped all my audio CDs, back when I still bought CDs, to flac format and serve them up via: https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver or mpd or both.

Self hosted audio server
Logitech Media Server or Owntone would be my recommendations.

Jukebox Mode?
Jellyfin is not ideal for this on its own. If you want some that could scale but also play locally check out Logitech Media Server. A lot of other audio projects are built on its code, much less play super nice with it if you want to expand in the future. Notable features is tons of plugins to integrate webradio, podcasts, etc and the easiest whole house audio setup out there.

Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
For serving local music, the free and open source "Logitech Media Server"[0] is a great solution -- main weakness is the lack of a central organization promoting it. In addition to working smoothly with dedicated ("squeeze") clients which can be Logitech-brand or DIY[1, 2], it has a massive plugin catalog that allows e.g.
- airPlay integration: stream to your squeeze-clients via airPlay, stream to your airPlay clients from squeezebox.
- chromeCast integration: stream to chromeCast devices from squeezeBox.
- upNp integration: stream to upNp clients.
The system was originally developed by "SqueezeBox" who also made (awesome) physical devices. SqueezeBox was acquired by Logitech many years ago. Logitech put out one or two devices before giving up, but they are actually playing really nice by continuing to support development on the server (see [0]).

When you use a Walkman the memories come back: the people in love with old tech
My primary way to play music is from my self-hosted navidrome[1] server with my collection of albums I've mostly purchased from bandcamp. I can stream it to many different devices at home or on the go.
But sitting next to my bed is a Walkman (actually a $10 Jensen version) with a few of my favorite cassettes in the nightstand drawer. Granted, I listen to raw black metal, so the format fits the music well, but I really enjoy just popping in a cassette and hitting play. When I "metaltate", I listen to full albums and do not want to ever be interrupted or have skipping audio due to bluetooth or anything else. It is a really simple and great experience.
Would I ever take my walkman with me or want to carry around a bunch of tapes on a trip? Of course not! But it does have a time and place that is valuable.
When friends come over, we use either vinyl or my custom built RFID cards. There is more of a ceremony to digging through a physical stack of albums and being forced to listen to the album front to back.

Ask HN: Managing MP3s on Mac/iOS Without Streaming Services
Basically, you run a server on your Mac that scans your music collection and "broadcasts" it to the network (LAN or WAN) via either the venerable UPnP/DLNA[1] family of technologies or the newish Subsonic API[2]. Of course, there are others, like DAAP or AURA, etc..
From there, you need to point a compatible player to said server to play your music on any supported device.
If you want to listen to your music on the go, pairing a Subsonic-compatible server on your Mac and a Subsonic-compatible app on your iPhone is probably the way to go. On the server side, I have only used the original Subsonic[3], which was good, but Navidrome[4] seems to be OK. But be aware that the whole "scene" is super messy and fragmented, with the usual abandoned forks of open source alternatives of everything.
Note that this means opening your local network, which comes with its own complexity.
This r/selfhosted thread[5] should give you an idea.
My use case is slightly different. I only care about streaming to my Denon CEOL mini system, which only supports UPnP/DLNA, so my current setup is:
- All my music is stored on a 2011 Mac Mini,
- I use Kazoo Server[6] (not perfect but reliable) to stream it to my audio system,
- which I control via the HEOS app provided by Denon.
Whatever stack you choose, make sure your files are tagged correctly and consistently.

.NET 8 Standalone 50% Smaller On Linux
Jellyfin is great for movies & shows. As an anecdote, it's not so good for music if you're a collector. I personally use Navidrome for that[0].
Anyway, Sonarr[1] makes use of .NET, too. Very reliable software, in my experience.
