What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
Just wanted to give quick plug for my music player app Supersonic! It's a client for Subsonic API-compatible servers, so it handles the UI and playback while the server (Gonic or LMS would be good lightweight choices for localhost-only setup) handles the library management/metadata indexing. It's a quite young project but I have lots of plans for continued improvement and new features (and would gladly accept contributions)!

Any way to stream my nearly 2TB library from my iPhone?
If you're concerned about power usage You can start with just a raspberry pi or something similar running something like Lightweight Music Server which uses a subsonic protocol. Then any app that can connect to a subsonic server like ultrasonic (not sure if this one specifically available for iOS). That's how I started before moving onto Plex and Plexamp.
-
What's yout preferred selfhosted music streaming suite?
I use LMS (Lightweight Music Server) to stream my music to desktop and mobile. It supports the Subsonic API for clients, scrobbling to ListenBrainz, has a nice web UI, and for some reason is the only music server that supports volume equalization with Replaygain.

Looking for a good music playlist generator
Not sure if that would fit your needs but https://github.com/epoupon/lms has a radio mode that automatically feeds the play queue with similar tracks. Just seed with some tracks (a whole album, a discography, a single track, etc.) and hit play.

Best self hosted service you're using for music?
LMS - LightWeight Music Server https://github.com/epoupon/lms Super fast with a good set of features. Seems to be well coded in general.
-
Hardware/Software recommendations
Hmm, that link shows me my IP address is banned (I assume from the time when the provider I use had dynamic IPs so a whole range is banned). Anyway - is it this? https://github.com/epoupon/lms

self hosted music server that sorts an artist's releases into singles/compilations/live albums/etc? not plex
https://github.com/epoupon/lms has 2 dedicated sections for albums, to isolate compilations. I guess adding more sections like singles/live albums should be feasible.
-
Most private music streaming available?
That's probably the Lightweight Music Server.
-
Self-hosted service to keep track of new artist/album releases?
For me playlist management in its current state is fine. In fact I moved from my previous self-hosted music service (LMS) precisely because it didn't have any playlist feature at all.

multipurpose
Why not just rip them and either just dump the mp3s onto your device or set up your own streaming thing with something like LMS

- Spotify/Youtube Music alternative?

Bose SoundTouch WiFi Audio Streaming
There are a few dockers that seem to be able to do what you want. Some can stream local audio to airplay devices what might work with a bit of scripting for your white noise and others might work as a Chromecast to Airplay bridge https://github.com/philippe44/AirConnect https://github.com/1activegeek/docker-airconnect

I used something different. Basic details for your entertainment/edification/comedy source material follow mostly so you can shortcut a comparison if you're building something at your place.
1) Pi-zero running shairport-sync (couldn't get them, got orange-pi zero 2 which works great) https://github.com/mikebrady/shairporait-sync. I have a few of these.
2) Class D amp, Aiyima, Fosi, Loxjie etc Aliexpress is one place to get these. I've used and like Aiyima A03 and their ali store delivers fast.
3) Some nice, high-quality, 2nd hand speakers you like. Wharfedale, JBL, B&W, Acoustic Research, Yamaha. (Or get some active speakers you like and skip #2, eg B&O beolab 6000)
4) owntone (formerly known as forked-daapd) https://owntone.github.io/owntone-server/
5) configure owntone with your spotify premium, takes less than a minute. (And with your music that you own - takes longer because you take more care).
You now have a multiroom setup with fantastic sound that you can control with http://owntone.local:3689/ including with your phone. And/or you can use the "Retune" app on droid and apple's "itunes remote" app on ios. Better sound than most alternatives for less dollars.
All integrates well with Homeasistant because of course it does.
I really like how mine turned out. Having half a dozen sets of speakers all playing the same music in perfect sync as you move from one room to another while doing chores on the weekend fills me with more joy that I would have guessed. YMMV.

Modernizing my 1980s sound system
Which is especially nice if you install Owntone ( https://github.com/owntone/owntone-server/ ) -- now you have a nice web interface for playing music to any or all of your systems.
Yes, you wouldn't get this running on an existing smart speaker (without first rooting it and some serious hacking).
If you'r in the Apple ecosystem and are using AirPlay with your smart speaker(s), it's however possible to also play synchronized audio across to your own DIY speaker setup, using another open source project.
https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync
Or you could of course choose to only use your old dumb speakers with this, and they will pop up as easily selectable sound output devices on all Apple devices connected to your network.
Or combine it (and librespot[2], owntone[3]...) with Snapcast to create a virtual speaker for your whole house that shows up everywhere.
