Fans quitting Spotify to save their love of music (2022)
Have you tried https://www.funkwhale.audio/?
It can be used effectively as a "private spotify". Labeling is a solved problem thanks to https://picard.musicbrainz.org/, and the fact that a lot of the music you buy these days comes pre-labeled already.
You then have a web-app (and/or a mobile app, if that's your thing) where you can stream music as you would with Spotify.
You can even build yourself a little music-sharing commune with friends, where you all upload the albums you buy and accumulate a nice collection of diverse tunes.

What do you use to tag your music on an NAS (Unraid)?
I use picard for my collection. My work flow is Picard > Lyrics Finder > Foobar for BPM, RealGain and DR > Custom python script to pull genre and mood from Last.FM and spotify> then Advanced Renamer to perform naming clean up of folder names. I lowercase and underscore spaces. Also does files if I happen to need Mp3Tag when Picard doesn't find anything. Once this is done I move files on to may NAS.

The Quest for Semantic Music Tagging Software
Musicbrainz Picard - A great application that I've used in the past to identify and organize my saved music collection. It's not focused on adding semantic tags though: it's used for adding metadata to .mp3 files.

I do the same but run it though Picard[0] before adding to Plex.

Spotify/Youtube Music alternative?
Aside from properly ripping and tagging your own physical collection I'd generally refer you to r/piracy but I think they've gone a bit strange since the blackout. I'm fairly sure anything more specific in that direction would not be appropriate for this subreddit.

(if this is not appropriate for the sub feel free to delete) I'm burning a cd and I'm just wondering what the numbers under the # symbol mean? Thanks in advance.
Downloading MusicBrainz will be a lifesaver for you.
