Airsonic VS koel

Hi there, I'm trying to install Airsonic and I stumbled upon this topic here: https://github.com/airsonic/airsonic/issues/1128

https://github.com/airsonic/airsonic is a Java-based web interface, which would require some form of hosting to setup.

Currently, I have Booksonic installed via docker using LinuxServer. Current version " Version2201.1.0 – January 13, 2022, based on Airsonic 8b28366"

Sonos integration was never properly merged into vanilla Airsonic. The existing implementation in vanilla Airsonic is broken. Development seems to have ceased on vanilla Airsonic anyway so no hopes to get integration working. Here is the (still open!) PR for Sonos on vanilla Airsonic that was never merged: https://github.com/airsonic/airsonic/pull/1738

Yeah, I made a PR with a fix for this over a month ago and it has been ignored: https://github.com/airsonic/airsonic/pull/1879

https://airsonic.github.io/ it's a media streaming service like Plex for music.

Koel Music Server (https://github.com/koel/koel) Opensource music server, nice GUI and allows high fidelity streaming of all your music files

You could take a look at koel. I don’t see it suggested that often. The iOS app is open source, but cost $9.99 on the App Store (one time purchase, not a subscription).

Koel. It's simple, it works out of the box, is ready to use despite low effort setup.

Koel - stream your music collection. A little tough to setup and the android app is a little buggy, but the best interface I've seen for such an app (lmk if you know pretty alternatives).

koel looks nice and comes with native apps too.

Koel

while Jellyfin is great for video, i have found its music streaming to be lacking... i prefer to use Koel ( https://github.com/koel/koel ) it only supports a single library of music, but it does pretty much exactly what i want it to; and it has a native (at least android, not sure about ios) mobile client, all open source. its great.

I would like to install koel on a Digital Ocean droplet. However, I have not found their instructions to be very helpful regarding the installation of prerequisites. One article gave some suggestions, but they were out of date or otherwise incompatible.
