IMO if you are not using everynoise.com to find new music, you really should.
This github project is a small remote with a rotary encoder and display on an esp32 that uses everynoise https://github.com/quadule/knobby you can select by country/genre and random, it can also be used to play and control your own playlists. It is an extremely well polished piece of software. I am not the dev, i built a couple of them though.
- connecting a DIY mp3 to a selfhosted music server.

Is there a way to figure out the music genre through your playlists?
Everynoise is awseome, i found this https://github.com/quadule/knobby and built one. Finding new music, and different stuff. It plays merry hell with spotifys algorithm for generated playlists lol.

Why are you guys sticking to the ESP8266? I just found this subreddit in my recommend.
This is a major feature. An example is this project https://github.com/quadule/knobby a spotify remote control on tt-go t-display. Its very battery friendly because the screen isn't on much, click the rotary encoder - boom its back in a second or two including connecting to wifi, spotify api and retrieving now playing info

ESP32 - Streaming music from Spotify
https://github.com/quadule/knobby is an interesting project. While its not what op asked for, it turns esp32 into remote control for spotify. You can switch output devices, play playlists. The main goal though is finding new genres through everynoise api, its quite clever how this is done using genre + country and finding similar genres to ones you like. A side effect of using it is Spotify's own suggested playlists suddenly become more eclectic.

alternative to chromecast audio (commercially available, or DIY)
I understand that since around 2018 Spotify Connect can be used without a Premium account, and for many devices this is indeed the case. But according Raspotify on Github Premium is needed to use Spotify Connect. Same for this freelinux project.
